Not Secure
To protect your privacy, Chrome will not auto fill your password in this field.
That wording is a bit authoritarian as well. This password itself was saved from that same http page. I see what they're trying to get at here but this is a gross violation of user authority.

Chrome now refuses autofill on HTTP URLs, causing issues for users with local network devices and apps.
