There is a chrome extension for that (NSFW name) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dont-fuck-with-pas...

Banking websites do this. I cannot stand it. Thanks.

It is like they want to prevent people from using password managers and strong lengthy passwords!

In some cases because their legacy systems can't support long passwords. I know my previous bank was restricted to 6 digits (maybe even just 4). Their solution was to add in those annoying security questions like "What was your first dog's name". Sigh.

I use Diceware for those things, in case I have to use them over the phone. "My dog's name is effervescent mandible egg voldemort; my mother's maiden name is regent utterly busted harpy"

I called Schwab once because a LastPass misstep locked me out of my account. The CSR told me it was great that I was using a password manager and that she wished more people used them.

I guess it keeps her employed ;) But on a more serious note, banks are not as stupid and anti-technology as the average HN reader wants to believe. Their programmers are no doubt here too.

(Now why Schwab limits me to an 8 character password... I don't even want to know. But I do have a _good_ 8 character password ;)

On that topic, how about the ability to disable manipulating of copied text (is there a name for ctrl+c injection?)
