I remember hearing before that it's a sign they are storing your info unencrypted but I never checked.

Is this true? I was logging into a .gov website and noticed it does that.

Auto fill without user intent is infuriating. As is password managers that decide to put an overlayed frame that takes focus away.

As a user, it's infuriating to me. I hate just about anything that changes a webpage after it's initial load and especially anything that takes focus. (I have an extra hate for mobile sites that have a pop-up to join an email list that pulls focus and pops up my phone's keyboard automatically too.
