I know they're the same, I just mean if what I type is going to be in my term until I close it, or someone could do the whole look-over-the-shoulder or I could accidentally broadcast it or something.
Even your sudo password can be spied on, but I'd still prefer to not have my password written for everyone to see by scrolling up.

Yeah true. In this case he made the pass with getpass just the username is raw input. But anyway I see what you're saying.

The password was raw_input('Password: ') when I posted originally, he may well have changed it after a few people mentioned it.

Yeah I did, considering how much the guys suggested.

Why would anyone ever need this? I am not sure why anyone would need a local login system in Python.

But it's not a secure login system. Neither does it accomplish anything. I am not saying it's useless, but this code isn't gonna teach anyone anything.

Please do tell me how to decrypt a SHA 256 hash. Just to prove your point that it is not secure.

I did not mean that the encryption itself isn't save. Just that the implementation of it isn't safe. It's stored locally in your RAM and there is no salt at all. These 2 are obvious security flaws and should be corrected.

He didn't implement getpass until a few of us brought it up, he just said we should do it ourselves.
So don't even bother. 🤫
