Saving important documents in 1Password

@1PassMicha I don't use any additional cloud encryption software because of the added complexity. It bears the risk you lose everything, if the encryption software fails. It also thwarts the reason I use the cloud in the first place: sharing the files with all my devices, and usually encryption software is not available for all of them.

If it comes to my OneNote example, you cannot use encryption software for cloud-stored OneNote notebooks, because you never see the database files. It's accessed via some Onedrive API to allow realtime syncing (if you type something on one device, it will appear immediately on all other devices).

If it comes to cloud storage in general, I use it as it is offered. If it comes without end-to-end encryption, I either don't use it at all or use it without end-to-end encryption. In case of Onedrive, chose to accept it as it is and use it without end-to-end encryption. I don't really care for robots scanning my uploaded data for whatever. It's clear there are taboo files because of that, for example private holiday pictures that contain nudity. That's stuff that simply cannot be cloud stored, it's taboo.

It's a flaw of today's cloud storage services and severely lowers the value of such services, and if I could have end-to-end encryption at an additional price, I would pay it. However I will not use clumsy addon software to patch that in. That's too risky, and it's not clear if that addon software even lowers security because of bugs instead of increasing it.
