Here is an attempt to answer your serious question.
When was the last time that you "could have sworn" that you left your keys on the desk, but they're on the counter instead. Suppose that happened; it almost certainly means you just misremembered where you left your keys, but there is a TINY chance that someone might have stolen the keys, copied them, and put them back in the wrong place.
Just to be 100% certain, you immediately call a locksmith, and get your locks changed. And all the neighbors start talking about how poor you are at security for having allowed a burglar into your house.
THAT would be a reasonable analogy for what LastPass did.
- arn 16y agoYes, I didn't need an analogy. I wanted to know why, in a secure house which presumably had cameras and sign in sheets, why couldn't they review the video tapes to see if someone had actually taken the keys or not. (to extend your analogy)
