Don't F*** With Paste: Prevents Blocking of Copying and Pasting
Don't F*** With Paste is a free Chrome extension developed by Jacob Swanner. It falls under the category of Browsers with a subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This extension aims to prevent the blocking of "copy", "cut", and "paste" browser events.
With this extension installed, users can freely copy and paste content into input fields without any interference. It does not, however, prevent sites from interfering with keyboard shortcuts related to these actions or the "contextmenu" event. For instances where sites are particularly annoying and interfere with keyboard shortcuts and the right-click menu, users may need to use the browser's menu by going to Edit -> Paste.
Version 2 of this extension is a major update, providing an improved user experience. It allows users to ensure that the extension only runs on sites that actively block copy and paste events. Additionally, it provides visibility into the active and inactive states of the extension for each tab.
It is important to note that in order for the extension to work smoothly, it requires the "tabs" permission. Chrome describes this permission as the ability to read and change all data on websites visited. However, the developer assures that this extension does not perform any such actions. As an open-sourced project, users can review the code to understand how the extension works and what it does not do with their data.
