    This option is not possible, once it is attached to a gmail account - a password will be needed, otherwise you'll have to use Guest. Otherwise, just make the password really simple

    Since your Chromebook is intimately tied to your Google account, thus anyone who has access to your computer (without a password) has access to all your email, history, bookmarks, Google Drive files, etc. Hence one of the reasons for a password login.
