I used to be able to alter the permissions for who could view what using the [inrupt.com](http://inrupt.com) pod web browser.

Now i very briefly get a message popup showing the following, but it disappears after 5 seconds. Note that there is no “preferences” option in the pod browser - so I can’t set that.

I’ve created a new account to in order to ensure that it wasn’t me altering permissions, but that gives me exactly the same issue - HELP!!! 🙂

Questions about Inrupt’s products can probably best be asked to them directly 🙂 Clicking “Help” on [podbrowser.inrupt.com](http://podbrowser.inrupt.com) brings me to [Jira Service Management](https://inrupt.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/7), so you could try that?
