Password layout #372

Open Hylders opened 3 years ago

I'm personally really concerned about privacy, and with recent technologies and even more power available to compute things, it should now be possible to "lip-read" finger strokes and by the way steal passwords. So my suggestion is to add an option to have a button to trigger the randomized keyboard. It would maybe even possible to detect a password input field and automatically trigger this keyboard.

@Hylders for lip reading turn off vibration/sounds on keystroke If you're concerned about typing profiling use Tor browser or a well respected browser with JavaScript disabled, and try using trusted notepad to type stuff then paste the text in your desired text box(remember to copy a random character after that, since in the current securityscape everyone can see clipboard)

@Oymate I'm aware about all of that, but it as nothing to do with lip reading truth cameras. When I'm typing my password to access my password manager, I can still be recorded doing so and someone can lip read what I tipped. And with modern technologies and how electronics is now more accessible to everyone than ever, it's more likely to happen than ever before.
