Hey, @united social media person: I know this isn't your fault. But the entire computer security community thinks this password policy is exactly backwards and is putting your customers at risk. Seriously, this is just about unanimous. Tell your boss to get this fixed.https://twitter.com/united/status/960423339423449088 …

The browser/pw-mgr folks need to get with the program too and implement auto-fill as fake keystrokes not paste so incompetent policies like this can't be implemented.

Why couldn’t browser makers just disallow the disabling of paste as an entry method? Would fix this for everyone at once. Is there any scenario where disabling paste actually makes sense?

Excepting IE all major browsers are open source. Block that method & I'll just fork the code & put it back in. And then offer it to whoever wants it.

Which is nobody - that's the whole point. Browsers are implementing awful "features" like this not for the user but for the user's adversary - the site publisher.
