Worth pointing out that if you use LastPass and the US government wants a list of all of the accounts you use, a history of when you logged in to them, the IPs you were using when you logged in, and your usernames and passwords, they can get it.
All they need is a court order to compell LastPass to target your account with some modified backdoored JS. They have done this before to force Hushmail to send backdoored java applets to targetted users.
I used LastPass for a very short time. I now use a PGP encrypted text file.
- pampa 13y agoPGP encrypted text file is not very convenient. Give keepass a try http://keepass.info/ http://keepass.info/. Its open source, cross platform and has a nice random password generator. Can't live without it. I never understood why people would want to use a cloud-based password manager. I find the whole idea of giving your passwords to a 3rd party ridiculous, and doesn't matter if they are encrypted or not. Wasn't there a security breach with one of these services a few months ago?
- newman314 13y agoYes, LastPass which is why I use 1Password + DropBox. As soon as a non-Dropbox cloud (eg. aerofs) share becomes available that works for 1Password, I'm switching to that.
