My impression from when I’ve encountered this is that it is an attempt to repel bots.
Speculating/knowing about the reason doesn’t help when I’m confronted with having to input the password *6mA*P7CCuVyHo8kh%x34!63wm23&uhzSMY3Xy3$*8^%7j$VeH^7

hmm bots don’t use keyboard or mouse copy & paste so I don’t see how that makes sense?
my impression is this is just stupid product managers who don’t understand why it’s a bad idea to force all your users to manually type out their passwords or email addresses just because of the 0.1% of people who would copy and paste one with an error in.
Weird, that’s one character off from my Paramount+ password. I know from typing it on every fucking STB and console that I own and painstakingly quadruple-checking each character when it fails.
You’d think I’d just change to a passphrase but nah. Ain’t nobody got time for that. Too busy ranting about user unfriendly problems that shouldn’t exist in modern STB apps.

*6mA*P7CCuVyHo8kh%x34!63wm23&uhzSMY3Xy3$*8^%7j$VeH^7if you use keepasxc, what about autotype? I could never get it to work but idk.
Bots don’t paste. If it a selenium related bot it would inject the value or type out each keypress.
It only causes real users pain
