Are you using an enhanced version of spellchecker in MicrosoftEdge or GoogleChrome? Bad news -- your personal information might be at risk.
If you like to be thorough and use an advanced spellchecker, we have some bad news — your personal information could be in danger.
“If you click on ‘show password,’ the enhanced spellcheck even sends your password, essentially spell-jacking your data,” said otto-js in its report. “Some of the largest websites in the world have exposure to sending Google and Microsoft sensitive user PII [personally identifiable information], including username, email, and passwords, when users are logging in or filling out forms.
That, in itself, is not unexpected. When you enable the enhanced spellchecker in Chrome, the browser tells you that the “text that you type in the browser is sent to Google.” However, many people would expect that this excludes PII that is often submitted in forms.
