- tgb 8y agoIt'd be your browser providing this. They already get all your keystrokes.
- alexandercrohde 8y agoNo mainstream browser sends arbitrary keystrokes back to their server. If such an autocomplete widget becomes HTML standard it should be done through client-side information only. Knowing chrome though, they'd want to tie it to your "sync" identity which already autocompletes passwords/cc.
- tgb 8y agoI don't understand. Currently the website I'm on and the browser get access to all my keystrokes. The suggestion is to allow an <input> tab to let the browser take over and do its thing for suggesting autocompletes (whatever that is) instead of the website suggesting them. What's the novel security concern?
- jessaustin 8y agoPerhaps parent has turned off javascript?
- perlgeek 8y agoNot more or less than a JS based autocomplete box does now. Possibly less, if more state is held locally.
