 Let's say you're using Amazon.com. You log in and you add some books to your shopping cart. A day goes by. Of course your user session has expired and you've been logged out. But Amazon "remembers" you, greets you by name, and is still giving you personalized book recommendations. To Amazon, `isRemembered()` would return `TRUE`. What happens if you try to use one of the credit cards on file or change your account information? While Amazon "remembers" you, `isRemembered() = TRUE`, it is not certain that you are in fact you, `isAuthenticated()=FALSE`.

After the login, your identity has been verified and `isAuthenticated()=TRUE`.
