Just came up with my father again.
He blames me that mother forgot her phone’s and Google password because I recommended against it being a word.
I mentioned encryption, “not necessary unless you’re doing something illegal”.
When mentioning lack of privacy with targeted advertisements, he said that he actually really likes them, because he bought a couple of things he wanted for years.

I don’t really have good arguments.

    Password managers on Android (and frankly all platforms) actually try to avoid using the clipboard. They prefer the auto-fill service, which is intended for applications just like this. Unfortunately this isn’t working in all cases, but you can also set your password manager as a keyboard (temporarily), so it can directly input a selected username/password without anyone else seeing it.

    Examples where I know this is the case are open source keepass options (Keepass2Android, KeepassDX). But I’d assume bitwarden and the like also work this way.
