Visible password fields

Once you talk to people in the early 30s and older you'll realize that they just really don't see the significance in security. Tied with a lack of care they hardly remember 2-3 6-8 character passwords. They get easily confused .

I didn't say that you dunce, I said I need visual confirmation of the password in order to know if my positioning is accurate. If I fail it the first time I change my posture or move my keyboard.

>It's just another example of dumbing down interfaces for the least common denominator
This. Tbh passwords are outdated and security keys are the future.

>they just really don't see the significance in security
because there is none, 90% of "security" it is just a meme

I always thought this was really strange on Amazon too.
I can somewhat understand why the option would be there but why the fuck is it the default?

Get an Amazon account is tied to your CC. You should care very much so.

>i forgot my password
this should be the main button. just text me a temporary code that allows me access to my account, i never remember the password anyway

You're not liable for fraudulent purchases.

>oh no someone can order things and have it sent to my house!!!
You need to reenter the credit card information to add a new shipping address.

Not in germany.

I guess he meant someone can empty you bank account while sending you hundreds of little raspberry pis.

>credit card
You can just call the bank and issue a chargeback. If you're dumb enough to still be using a debit card better hope it has fraud protection.

I don't mind since I use a password manager and it think it's like a 100 characters long. No normie will be able to get into my amazon account

That's why it's important for us to see what we type on the screen. Brainlets like OP have to look at the keyboard to see what they type and thus don't mind that obscured password fields.

Germanguy here, I didn't even know that debit and credit cards existed and had to google that. Seems like I am using a debit card my whole life but actually now I wanna know why it is better to use/have a credit card? I know I know this derails the thread but I am pretty fucking interested now.

Many debit cards don't have fraud protection and therefore act like cash. If it's stolen (either physically or details leaked/captured) and used you have little to no chance of reversing the transaction as the money leaves your account right away. With a credit card you have a billing cycle of usually 30 days and within each billing cycle you can dispute fraudulent charges and have them reversed since no money leaves your account until you pay the monthly statement.

In most countries a debit card is better than a credit card because you're spending your own money, instead of bank credit. The only advantage of credit cards is that they are valid in all countries and debit cards tend to only work in the regions they were issued.
So unless you travel abroad, debit is better than credit. Unless you're an American. Americans have a 'credit score' rating, aka a 'good goy rank' where unless you use your credit card a lot you'll have a low credit score and won't be able to enter leases or mortgages if you want a home.

You Americans are fucked up. You do realize that first world countries have full fraud protection for debit cards, right? If American debit cards don't have it, it's because the bankers want you to become indebted to them and they entice you to use credit cards.

thank you both. Seems like I learned something today.

>not touch-typing so well you don't need any visual feedback

no one really looks unless you are buying shit at starbucks and there is almost always a hide button.
users dont like that feature cause they cant see what they fucking type. design flaw IMO

credit cards literally give you free money unless you are an idiot and build up debt with them. some can be set up to directly draw from checking too

who the fuck cares? Do you really have niggers looking over your shoulder as you type your password in or chinks recording your screen? Are you braindead?

Lowest* common denominator you dumb fuck
Don't use smart people words if you're smart'nt

Mate.

No one want's to steal your credit card with $3.50 left on it.

This.
Non american here.

>thousands on credit cards
>0% for 27 months
>earn money on muh money through investment
>pay credit back in full at end of 0% term or balance transfer it

Now I just need ETH to go back up to $600 so I'm not bankrupt.

Phoneturds have almost no way to know if they typed in the right symbol because there's no depth to on screen keyboards.

This will definitely happen user, there's no one that has ever lost money on crypto.

That barely helps. Typing on these blackberry phones isn't much nicer than typing on the onscreen keybord, if at all.
Have you ever tried it personally?

I have one and I can type entire paragraphs without looking down at my phone which helps a lot when responding to a text while walking.

Weird. I tried one for almost two weeks and it didn't do it for me at all.

Sites generally start running the same layout on both types once Phones got past 720p resolution.
Like order of things or layout might be different to unclutter, but its still the same webpage with the same scripts for all the same boxes.
This isn't early 2000s anymore kiddo.

Most of the Eurozone economy has it shit together
So ramparant fraud isn't such a thing.
On top of that, a lot of fraud protection is legally required regardless of medium.

Americans are essentially in the situation where they NEED the Credit cards to provide the security, because of a combination of rampant fraud and no rights.
And its sad.

>and debit cards tend to only work in the regions they were issued.
Which is what... The entire of the World that supports VISA? I can't think of a national bank that has rolled out a Debit card without a international provider outside of that country.
VISA, Mastercard and a whole bunch of different providers are the norm.

WHenY00HaVE2*seUPPPER&lowerAND^&$!*$"(noFUCKcanTYPEthemProp@ blind otherwise. Its stoopid fuckin 'password strength' BS roolz that stops people either remembering or allowing them to type blind. And you try upper lower mixed numbers and fucky symbols BS on a fuckin 3" phone in the rain, get fucked. If they would just allow (and even encourage) phrases/sentences instead, but, no

I've never heard of a single working visa debit card anywhere in the world. Moreover, debit cards issued by financial institutions are never on either visa nor mastercard, and often they won't provide that option either.

Not him but my debit card has the Visa logo on it and it worked pretty much everywhere I tried. Not that I live a jetset lifestyle but I've been to a few countries and didn't have any problems with it

I just want to add that I hate this function where you can see the last typed letter for like 3 seconds before it becomes a *-symbol.

>wut
Bong is full of them - it actually used to be the banks issued their own cards, with maybe a common payment system, but now Bong at least seems to be almost entirely 'Visa Debit' etc.

Only iPhones have this problem. On Android it is off by default.

It came in with phoneposting. Phoneposter racewar when?

The problem with debit is the money is directly taken from your chequing account which means your bank has to dsipute it. If a visa or MasterCard has fraudulent purchases you go through them.

Visa and MasterCard are just easier to deal with for fradualent activity
