--- Comment #4 from Mike <mike.p...@gmail.com> --- I would like to see this request revisited. With the popularity of password managers and the increasing use of pseudorandom strings as identifiers for things like crypto wallets, the clipboard is increasingly used to hold highly sensitive information. This has also been a lure for malicious actors. And while the overwhelming majority, of those malicious actors target Windows users, I would prefer we not become victims of our own hubris :) Currently I manage this with a script that runs from .config/autostart and checks org.kde.klipper.klipper.getClipboardContents once per minute. Then, when extant data in the clipboard is unchanged for >10 minutes, it runs clearClipboardHistory. A more perfect (for me) solution would watch for clipboard activity (copy AND paste), then clear the contents if there is no activity for x seconds. Seeing a check box for "Automatically clear clipboard history when inactive?" and a box to specify how many seconds after the last copy/paste action to wait near 'Clipboard history' in the Klipper configuration applet seems to make perfect sense. :) (In reply to Mike from comment #3) > Created attachment 156935 [details] > script to clear kde/klipper clipboard after n seconds of last 'copy' action -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
