Something I want you to bear in mind with this password type attribute.
Is that (a)
it's been around since "pa fell off the bus".
That's just an expression saying it's been around for a very, very long time.
And secondly (b), this does nothing for security.
All it does is it blurs out the text characters on the front end.
When the user submits it via a GET request, it's going to be appended to the URL.
So just bear this in mind.
The password itself does not help you with security.
We have to implement other methods in order to make it better.
Hope that's making sense.
Let's jump back into the lecture.
