Don't F*** With Paste
Description from store

Extension that prevents the blocking of "copy", "cut" & "paste" browser events.

This extension does not try to prevent a site from also interfering with keyboard shortcuts related to those browser actions (control-v, command-v, etc.), nor does this extension prevent sites from interfering with the "contextmenu" event (right click menu). For those super annoying sites that interfere with keyboard shortcuts and context menu, using Edit -> Paste from the browser's menu might be required.

Version 2 is a major update to the extension. It makes it much easier to ensure the extension is only running on sites that are bad actors with copy & paste events and it also provides visibility into the active/inactive state of the extension for each tab.

In order to provide the smoothest experience as possible, the extension needs to know when you change active tabs. In order for the extension to know about that event, it needs the "tabs" permission, which Chrome describes as "can read and change all your data on websites you visit." That description is very scary, and is certainly not what this extension is doing. Being an open-sourced project, you can always read all the code to see how this extension works, and what it's [not] doing with your data.

With the new V3 for extensions, your extension stops working in 30 seconds

This is amazing ! I always would need to type in OTPs that are sent to my phone on bank sites manually which was very annoying. Now I use Phone link that connects with my phone and makes the sms messages available on my PC, and I can simply copy and paste it using this extension. Thank you for making this !

Right on point with the name. So f**** useful.

It is beyond me what a website gains by interfering with copy-paste. Allowing and encouraging copy-paste ***reduces*** user errors in typing, especially in typing long and complicated (i.e., hard-to-guess) passwords. Fortunately, we have this Don't F*** With Paste. How smoothly does it work? Some sites were blocking paste, and I did not even realize it. That's how smoothly it works. I might discover that a site is blocking paste in some unusual circumstances. For example, when I turn off all extensions when trying to debug some browser behavior,

Works great! Just make sure to enter the regular expression right.

I used it for the ca dmv website...jerks. Tip: I had to right-click and paste because they blocked ctrl-v events.

It worked for allowing me to paste a password into a registration field (yay!). However, part of this particular password process also included copying a code sent to my email. On that screen, this extension actually broke that pasting process. It was one of those where each digit of the code was in a separate field. Without the extension, I pasted into the first field and it automatically filled the others. With the extension, it would also paste in the first digit. I had to manually type in the other digits.

Works great to fix the stupid pensionlabs importer, which asks for your username and password to 3rd party pension sites, but won't let you paste the credentials in. It's like saying "let me steal your credentials, and not only that, but you will have to type in all of those random letters, numbers and special characters"!

Doesn't work at all on: https://www.springhole.net/ or most sites please fix this asap. Thank you kindly. (Have learned that 1 starring really hurts extension programmers makers so I'll try to avoid doing that.) "Suvodeep Pyne It is so incredibly annoying when they block out basic operations in the name of safety." The thing is it doesn't help with safety at all it's easy to disable JavaScript in the browser. It's a thinking error left over from the 90's.

I was suffering with something of my job! Always afraid of put anything in my computer. I took the risk. I am so glad. It worked! Now I do not need type dozens and dozens of data. I will save time life is so short and I was angry to wast my time and energy in one thing that can be improved. I was feeling stupid. At least coputers are to simplify aren't they?

Thanks a lot

Thought it didn't work. Came back and found that you have to add the URL as a pattern. Wish that could be made clearer or easier, but pinning the icon and just clicking on it will at least give a URL pattern that will work for the current page. To all the idiots out there who don't understand security and think disabling paste will enhance security--all it will do is force the hackers to push keystrokes instead of pasting. This does NOTHING but affect people who want to paste so they can be sure to get the EXACT value and remove any possibility of introducing errors caused by mistyping. Disabling paste does NOTHING to enhance security and actually encourages the use of simpler passwords and thus actually makes security WORSE.
Bob Cauthen
Fantastic extension! After adding the website pattern, this extension worked perfectly. Plus, you can see the source code for this extension on GitHub. I would not use it otherwise. I do not understand why websites continue to F* with paste! To all you website designers out there who F* with paste and who may be reading this... PLEASE STOP IT! I know you may be forced to, but please consider challenging that assertion for any client that disallows paste for their website. It hurts users to have to manually enter each field, every time. The tradeoffs in the name of "security" do not warrant it! It's extensions like this that help users, without sacrificing usability in the name of "security".
Daniel Fonseca
For those complaining, don't forget that you need to add the website (pattern) for this to work (like the Garmin example which is great for testing this, btw!). Awesome Chrome Extension!
