Why do I have to log in to see msdn content?

Question
-
Since about this week I always have to log in with my Microsoft account to see content. There does not seem to be a "remember me" function. I have this problem on several machines. When I do a websearch and click on microsoft content (e.g. msdn or technet) I always have to enter my password, which becomes very annoying.

Hi,
This has been going on for a while now. Here's another thread you can reference:

This is a known issue. Best to keep pinging the team so that they understand how high pri it is. Send emails to "fissues" at Micorosoft.

Me too. It's so inconvenient.
Even though I have selected "Remember me" checkbox on other MS websites, I always see the following hint:
"Because you're accessing sensitive information, you need to verify your password."
This may appear at any time, on any MS related websites.
Sometimes I am pretty sure I don't access any sensitive information, just open MS Homepage, also have this annoying hint.
