Regardless of the site, do you usually logout or do you just close the browser?<p>I ask because today in my settings on Linkedin I found that I had over 50 open sessions! And then the same thing on my Pinterest! Does it matter?
I always log out. I cannot think of any advantage to remaining logged in. I can easily envision disadvantages to remaining logged in whether those reasons are real or imaginary. I also lock the door to my apartment when I leave. There are people who will take advantage of any opportunity they find.
I usually close the tab. Especially in incognito/private browsing, it does almost the same thing as pressing log out.<p>Now for sites like LinkedIn/Pinterest, they keep your session open on the server side, which might be a good reason to log out.
