In Firefox, you can disable the clipboard events. I've done this for the rare case of me copy+pasting a password and forgetting to clear the clipboard after.

On Android, I've noticed that it's possible for apps to read from the clipboard, to read OTP tokens for example. Since I noticed that a while back, I've always been wary of the clipboard on any device I've used.
