Can I set someone as my beneficiary and then it stay locked like that forever? So I don't have the ability to change them as a beneficiary? Does the referrer beneficiary stay forever?

Not sure what you mean with 'locked'. The value is stored in the account metadata so it's always possible for the account owner (with the active key) to remove it.
So can the account owner remove a beneficiary if they only have their private key?
even if they only have logged in with the private key? and only have access to the private key?
What do you mean with 'private' key. Each key has a private and a public, so they can change the beneficiaries if they have the private active key. Not with the private posting key.
That's what I meant, the posting key. Say I create an account for a friend and then only give them the posting key. They won't be able to remove me as a beneficiary? As I have the active key? Thanks
Yep, correct. Of course this way they will not be able to use their wallet either.
