British researchers have trained an artificial intelligence to recognize keystrokes by sound. A smartphone placed near a laptop served as the microphone. How about copy & paste password using a password manager and protecting account with 2FA hardware keys? That would prevent the AI or not ?

@nixCraft That's not new, I remember looking into something similar in 2015/2016. There are lots of signals we don't think about from which we can infer data. If you're interested in learning more, I highly recommend reading Silence on the Wire, that focusses on passive reconnaissance and indirect attacks like that. It's a brilliant book, although it's a bit old by now so not everything may be relevant anymore.
