Risk explanation

It keeps a real logged-in browser on a remote box, so first rollout should stay on test accounts or tightly scoped workspaces with least-privilege access; The default path depends on Browser Use Cloud credentials and can add remote messaging control, so teams should review the exposure window before using it for production browsing.
