Hello black hoodie wearers of Reddit,
Today I had a interesting discussion with a colleague of mine. We thought about how login data is stored on the internet. To my knowledge a website stores login data, e.g. when I login into a forum and store the login so I am already logged in when I visit the site next time, in the form of cookies. Now, I that’s true, what would happen if I took the cookie from one computer, copied it to a usb stick and copied it to the right place on another computer? How is it prevented that someone takes the cookies and logs in with them?
