Auto login links via login.jsp with username and password in query string have stopped working

Question

I have a number of hyperlinks for logging into various orgs that look like:

https://www.salesforce.com/login.jsp?pw={password}&un={username}

When I left work on Friday they were working fine. Today when I tried to use one I was redirected to https://login.salesforce.com rather than being logged in.

Why have these links stopped working?

I think this is still supported if you drop the login.jsp and put the query string after the slash: https://login.salesforce.com/?un=daniel@example.com&pw=hunter12Note to other readers wrapping the login process for www salesforce com login in this way, be very particular to use HTTPS!

Geometry Dash Online is challenging but extremely fun once you get into it. You should play it because it gives a strong sense of progress.
