Mh, I found this article really strange: - firstly tie ourself to a service is the best thing to do to get lock-out of something "belonging to us" but not under our control, A TOTAL NO GO. We need to own, in person, not give something to others pockets "because their are safer"; - secondly I do not want to use ANY not-personal password managers and recent attacks prove very well why; - thirdly the most simplest form of being "locked out" is that a service we depend on does not work anymore, the simplest form of protection is NOT depending on third parties. Have your own files, on personal hw, with offline LOCAL copies and a good backup strategy (of course on encrypted storage, but that might prevent a thief access the information NOT ensure the availability of something) is a good lock-out prevention. Having a personal mail infra is hard, but owning a domain name and have a LOCAL mailserver at home that just use someone else service as a replica ensure you have the mails and the domain, being "locked out" means just being offline until you restore, still being able to read your mails and eventually move your domain somewhere else and that's far less harder. Having a personal website instead of using some platform is another nice way, especially if you advertise you have also a ZeroNet and similar P2P systems copy, so even if the website is hosted by some provider your readers know there is a LIVE copy in a P2P distributed system and eventually they even have a local copy.
