    Google search - browser nag pop-up: how can i disable??

    Double Lock Screen after Marshmallow update...

    I too just registered in order to voice my disapproval of this insane extra level of "security". It seems pointless to have a swipe screen to unlock, and then another screen to unlock again. WTF?
