I totally missed this switch by AgileBits. Does anyone know how to ensure that the data file continues to be synced to Dropbox or iCloud, not AgileBits? (Looking into my configuration, it would appear that AgileBits has silently moved my data from iCloud to the AgileBits cloud.)

- Johnny555 9y agoHow could that possibly happen? Local vaults can't just silently turn into cloud vaults, Why not, all they'd have to do is copy the local vault to their cloud service and you'd never notice until you discover that the local file you're syncing somewhere else no longer contains your new passwords. I'm not saying they've done this, but they could.
- jolux 9y agoYou have to explicitly sign up for their subscription service, so no, it can't currently be done silently.
- Johnny555 9y agoYou're confusing "they don't do that" with "they can't do that". Their terms of service appears to specifically allow this: You agree to grant AgileBits, Inc. a license to store, retrieve, backup, restore, and otherwise copy Your Data so that we may provide you with the Service.
- eridius 9y agoIf you don't have a 1Password cloud account, you're not using their "Service".
- eridius 9y agoYou're confusing what's theoretically possible with what they're actually doing. You asserted that they did something that they categorically do not do, and are trying to defend it by saying "but they could!". I don't understand why you're doing this though, unless you're trying to intentionally create FUD around 1Password.
- Johnny555 9y agoYou asked "How could that possibly happen". I gave an answer for how that could possibly happen.
- eridius 9y agoNot very helpful. I wasn't asking you to theorize on how AgileBits could change 1Password in the future to do that. Rather, I was expressing skepticism that events happened as you described (e.g. that 1Password just arbitrarily decided to convert local vaults to cloud vaults without any instruction from you).
