Hide the Password in the URL

6

Description

When including the password in a URL, hide the password.

Competitive/Pricing/Notes

In order not to have to login every time I navigate to a webpage, I stored a bookmark with the format: https://username:password@website.com

The login works, but now the password is shown visibly in the URL of the browser. Most other browsers hide the password and only show https://website.com

Moderator: Note that IE does not support password URLs, but Chrome and Firefox do. Tested on the newer Tesla browser Jun-2021 and is not implemented.
