This extension changes all password textboxes into normal textboxes... be safe folks ;-)
This extension converts all password textboxes into normal textboxes. It's based on an article Matt Baxter-Reynolds posted here: http://www.zdnet.com/we-need-to-stop-masking-passwords-7000020894/?utm_source=buffer&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Buffer
Personally I think masking is a good idea, but here is a chance to see for yourself!
Please note Lastpass must be disabled otherwise you will still see hashed passwords.

- (2013-10-10) Garrett Williams: I like that I can now see if I spelled the password correctly. It also helps me remember what password I'm using on a site. One issue with this plugin is that autocomplete now remembers my passwords in plain text. While this could be helpful, it's also a security risk some might not expect(somebody accessing your computer later, instead of looking over your shoulder).
- (2013-09-19) Walter Schumacher: This is great. Appears to work exactly as advertised. Why would I want to hide my passwords from myself when there's nobody looking over my shoulder? Can you do the same for Firefox? Please?
