One of the website UI modalities that I just *despise* are sites that block copy/paste (either via mouse clicks and sometimes also keyboard shortcuts) for filling important fields, out of some sort of misguided belief that this somehow enhances security. Actually it easily makes it worse in most cases. This is similar to sites that have crazy password rules (that they often can't even implement properly) that also tend to make security worse, not better. E.g., "Your password must contain between 10 and 22 characters, include no less than 3 characters between G and Q, at least two special characters, and a lowercase m and p. Thank you."
@lauren 100% agree, I have run into countless websites that prevent you from pasting in a bank routing/account number. As someone who has trouble reading numbers, it is immensely frustrating from a usability standpoint.
Like I put it in the password safe and triple checked it was right when I entered it, please let me just paste it in so I know it’s correct.
@coyodog @lauren Folks affected by this should file ADA complaints or equivalent in their jurisdiction. It's absolutely an accessibility violation.
