- vbezhenar 4y agoSane password manager uses a local database which you can't be banned from. You can easily make a backup of that database to some usb drive and put it into safe. You can't make a backup of your iCloud account and be sure that Apple won't ban you because you're living in a place that US does not like.

Parent was talking about failure cases of forgetting your "master password" - that's problematic regardless of the tech.

Apple usually uses 2-factor auth.
