But you work with computers and you understand the issues. Most people prefer convenience because they don't know better. What you just wrote shows that you are more informed than most microsoft users, so it's a bad plan to make the assumption that they are concerned about security.
Think about your customers this way: if your mother was going to buy something from your site, which would she prefer? She would prefer less typing. Then I'd tell her it's bad and she'd get worried and stop having her credit card stored. My father would prefer a site that stores his credit card number and if I told him there were huge security risks there, he wouldn't even care. His assumption is that his information is well-protected and even if it gets out, he has fraud protection. Unless you have an extremely specialized site, you are not its target audience. It is a bad move to assume yourself as the target audience of a site, even when you know that your stance is wiser.
