CopyCat

Catch websites spying on your clipboard — and stop them.

Every time you copy text, some websites silently register clipboard event listeners to read what you copied — without asking. Medium does it. News sites do it. You'd never know. CopyCat is a Chrome extension that catches them in the act. It shows you exactly which sites are monitoring your clipboard, blocks them from reading it, and optionally watermarks your copied text so you can detect if it ends up in an AI.

Top comment

Hey PH! 👋 I built CopyCat after realizing how many sites quietly hook into your clipboard without any indication. The clipboard API gives websites surprising access to what you copy — and most users have no idea. CopyCat is 100% free on the Chrome Web Store. Everything runs locally, zero data collection. Would love your feedback on what features to build next!

Who hunted CopyCat?

CopyCat was hunted by Keith Odinson. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
