    Agree. It is a stupid and antiquated idea. Two things I'd like to say though:

    One: you can probably set up some form of auto-type from your password manager to get around this issue.

    Two: blocking pasting is probably because password managers and operating systems must be secure when it comes to the clipboard, and clipboard management. Because if that's not safe, your passwords you are copying and pasting are not safe.

    This is one of the dumbest shit ngl. My bank also does this. However they go one step further. They force a maximum 12 letter password and 1 character of each type (capital, small, number, symbol) is necessary. This actively reduces password security smh
