support for anonymous access

Open billimek opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

For instances where this is being run in a controlled space (i.e. internal network), it would be great if there was an option to disable auth and allow anonymous creation/editing/deletion of shortlinks so that people do not need to first authenticate before using the tool.

No idea if this is something others find useful of not. Thoughts?

Probably not a bad idea! (Although at this point who doesn't have a gmail account? :)

Sounds great, maybe use some kind of browser fingerprint (fingerprint.js) or IP address for identifying the clients. We should prevent that users can spam entries into the database.
