I mean like, after I type a password on a computer, I’d rub my fingers across the entire keyboard to make sure any fingerprints/oil-residues gets evenly distributed so its harder to know the password. Same with phone unlock codes, I just use my fingers to rub against the part of the screen where the virtual keyboard was displayed.

Am I being weird? I’ve had this habit since the first time I got my first digital electronics.

    I check for card skimmers, but the things I would type into have so many people touching them in a day. I wipe my keyboard down at work to cut down on communicable sickness.

      I’ve seen a lot of new what look like thick foam pads stuck to the right side of cc pin pads to prevent a new skimmer device from being overlayed on top without it being obvious.
