RE: The Steemit view counter is gone! Why it wasn't effective and how it could be improved in the future

Thanks for the info! I haven't taken this into account...

Does this mean that apps like smartsteem store the log in information on their servers because they also need to have offline access to my account (to make votes)?

    I have never used SmartSteem, but if they vote on your behalf then yes.

    However, as far as I know, they use SteemConnect, so the information they store isn't as sensitive as a private key.

    If you want to know why I think the SteemConnect's access_token is not as sensitive as a private key, check this issue:
