Now type it a form that doesn’t allow copy and paste.

The California DMV requires you to renew your vehicle registration every year by paying with a bank account number (no card) which is like a 30ish digit number and they disable paste. If you get it wrong they won’t notify you in any way until you get pulled over by a cop who is one bad sneeze away from murdering you. It’s a great system.

tbh ive never had a password box that I can't copy/paste into

I've seen a few. They're super annoying when trying to use a password manager with a decent password.

Or even just a paper form.
