"If hit by mistake it might autotype in a window that is not at a login prompt, but maybe on a chat session and broadcast the user's password"
It's horseshit, but it's an argument
lets see what it does here...

edit: well, I guess it didn't broadcast the password, but it probably would have done on a real chat window that accepted multiple lines of input
- abdullahkhalids 2y agoThat's actually reasonable. I use keepassxc, and I have messed the autotype many times. But I mean, that is not an argument for disabling the feature.
- rendaw 2y agoI'd assume it would only put the password in a type="password" input, not a random text box.
- charles_f 2y agoNo, autotype does what it says, it simulates typing keys without looking at the screen
