BugMeNot: Free Shared Logins

A free web service providing shared logins and passwords for popular websites requiring registration and login, allowing users to access content without creating another account.

What is BugMeNot?

BugMeNot is a free web browser extension and web service that provides shared logins and passwords for many popular websites that require registration and login. It has a database of public usernames and passwords that have been contributed by other users.

The service allows people to access content on those sites without needing to actually create yet another account and password they would have to remember. This helps bypass some of the hassle of managing all the different login credentials for various websites.

To use BugMeNot, you simply try to access a site that requires logging in. If BugMeNot has credentials for that site, it will automatically populate the login form with an available public username and password. This logs you into the site with shared credentials so you can access the content.

The database of shared logins has been contributed by users around the world and contains credentials for thousands of websites. Popular sites covered include newspaper and magazine sites that require subscriptions, academic journal databases, wifi hotspot logins, website analytics tools, and more. The browser extensions make the login process easy and seamless.

While sharing login credentials raises some privacy and security concerns, BugMeNot is very convenient for quickly accessing sites without having to sign up for accounts. Just be aware that the shared logins are accessible to everyone else using the service as well. BugMeNot is useful for accessing websites, but sensitive accounts should always have unique credentials.
