      @moof Hmm, how sure are you that your custom dictionary is safe from random hackers.

      Obviously the examples you mentioned are no longer nonsense words but worthwhile attack vectors.

        @kallemp my custom dictionary is as safe as any of the other data on the phone. I’m on iOS, and using the system keyboard.

        The reality of the issue is that I trust the way too many websites I have to input this data into, mostly due to legal obligations, a lot less than I do my phone, and yet, I still have to use that data.

        And my Spanish ID number is a matter of public record that can be found easily enough by searching the appropriate public facing government databases.
