#even password sharing with a friend could backfire after a fallout

[lovdrop]

VRC password sharing to do “uploads” is NOT SAFE!! It is never safe to share a password!

While they have access to the password they can:

Log into your account on browser and edit your username, bio, friends, groups, access your VRC+ info, change your password and email, etc

Have access to your upload options via their Unity and browser

And even if you change that password later it may not log them out of Unity, in Unity they:

Can upload the avatar you agreed upon to receive, but also;

Could upload other things or change the agreed upon avatar

Have access to view your other uploaded avatars and delete them

Have access to the unique codes for the other uploaded avatars, and can use that to replace them with different avatars

None of that is safe!!

I saw a kid recently get their VRC account stolen because of doing password sharing for an “upload.” Just because a lot of people do it doesn’t make it smart or safe. Don’t trust strangers!
