I wish more people knew what Run... did, but the Ctrl + v should be a little more obvious. We need to teach more computer literacy if you don't immediately know that means you're copying text to something.
Especially on a shady site, mind you. But then again, this could be on a phishing email, so that's not always the case I guess. (I got one from "STARBUCKS" that Gmail didn't catch, their spam filter has been shit lately, blocking my work emails but letting through a lot of sus stuff).
Yeah, all this behaviour leads to is more annoyances for the people who do know what they're doing. People should really learn how the devices they use every day work, which includes stuff like the command prompt. Not necessarily how to use it, but at least what it is and what it can do.
Could have been sneakier perhaps if it said Shift+Insert instead of Ctrl+V.
