5 years agoHi @"jack.platten",
Thanks for the info!
I understand and appreciate the encryption aspect. I think this is fine for quite a few types of personal and sensitive data. My 1Password data is at a higher tier than those. It is often going to be the case that my 1P data enables access to those other data stores. It is the proverbial, "keys to the kingdom." For that reason alone, I prefer to keep the data on systems I fully control. It's unclear who has access to my data files that I elect to sync with 1Password's servers if I go with a subscription. Some 1Password employees, sure, but are there other vendors involved? Can you guarantee that my data is purged when I choose to purge it? If you're compelled to release my data, you'll likely have to do so (even if it is extremely unlikely)... Again, all these arguments favor keeping my credentials data locally. Yes, it's encrypted, and yes, it's unlikely to be broken anytime soon. It's just a level of comfort I have with where I keep my data stored. I'm sure quite a few others agree as well. I genuinely hope 1Password implements the self-hosted option. I'd be happy to pay for a subscription to maintain local control of my data.
