Here we go again. I imported my first 1099-DIV, and TurboTax STILL doesn't allow copy+paste of passcodes!
I don't re-use passcodes, ever. Plus all of my passcodes are randomly-generated 20-digit strings. This is extremely frustrating! Please allow copy+paste passwords into TurboTax! Include a disclaimer, we're all adults!
Why copy-paste is considered better for security:
Promotes strong password usage:
By allowing users to paste passwords from a password manager, which generates strong, unique passwords for each site, it encourages better password practices. Forcing users to type in complex passwords every time can lead to them choosing weaker options or reusing passwords across different sites. Malware concerns are mitigated:
Keystroke capture is more common that clipboard capture. Even if they have the same risk. preventing pasting does not guarantee protection against keylogger attacks.
