    The thread is actually quite long and brings some other examples, like Reddit. Creepy as fuck but I’m not really surprised apps snoop into your clipboard. Any AppOps manager on android will exhibit a permission to decide whether an app can access the clipboard, I’m not fond of how the permission can be used by apps but I always remove it except for AnySoftKeyboard
