Crazy terrible security practice I've noticed recently: people logging into accounts on hardware they don't own.

I rented a car and realized a previous renter had linked their Google account to it and I could see previous Maps trips and saved addresses.

I rented a house and realized a previous renter had logged into their streaming accounts on the TV and if I had wanted, could really screw with them.

I've been to some nicer hotels that have a system that auto logs out the TV from streaming accounts when you check out, but seems rare.
