    Google Chrome extension that prevents the blocking of pasting into input fields

  • Right now I cannot think of any page that inhibits pasting, what is a good candidate to test this out?

  • DontFuckWithPaste

    Google Chrome and Firefox extension that prevents the blocking of pasting into input fields

  • This one is the version linked by the Firefox addon [0]. Honestly can't tell if one or the other is better but I like having it automatically enabled. Considering it hasn't been updated for years (but still works) I'm not particularly worried.

  • Force-Paste

    Paste text even when not allowed (password dialogs etc) in macOS

  • I use this similar but even older tool, which still works. This one is Mac-specific but works across most/all apps, i.e. not a browser plugin.

  • password-manager-resources

    A place for creators and users of password managers to collaborate on resources to make password management better.

  • Even Apple was so annoyed at this themselves that they actually went for a full open-source open-for-contributions GitHub repository at https://github.com/apple/password-manager-resources to get around these issues.

    > Many password managers generate strong, unique passwords for people so that they aren't tempted to create their passwords by hand, which leads to easily guessed and reused passwords. Every time a password manager generates a password that isn't compatible with a website, a person not only has a bad experience but a reason to be tempted to create their password. Compiling password rule quirks helps fewer people run into issues like these while also documenting that a service's password policy is too restrictive for people using password managers, which may incentivize the services to change.

  • evilpass

    Slightly evil password strength checker

  • Tangential at best, but this project made me think of evilpass, which is the funniest password validation scheme ever!

    It probably does increase security, but it also gives the impression of actively hacking you.
