“You Are Actually Giving Away Your Personal Data When You Copy And Paste It”
I wish smartphones have clipboard access permission but they don’t have, once you copy anything (it goes into the clipboard) it is a public access area – almost every app in your phone can access, read and copy the information in your clipboard. It’s like anything uploaded to the internet via http, it can be accessed by anyone who wishes to have the information.
Let me make it simple – Stop copying and pasting sensitive personal information in your phone like email, passwords, credit card details, bank accounts etc.
Your phone clipboard is a public access area and any app can collect and use any data in the clipboard.
Check out how to go about it securely in this Video.
