You have to explicitly sign up for their subscription service, so no, it can't currently be done silently.
You're confusing "they don't do that" with "they can't do that". Their terms of service appears to specifically allow this: You agree to grant AgileBits, Inc. a license to store, retrieve, backup, restore, and otherwise copy Your Data so that we may provide you with the Service.
I use Enpass on Linux, Windows, OS X, Android, and iOS. I also use the Chrome extension. It has a similar user experience to 1Password, but is actually serverless (you sync your encrypted blob to a cloud service of your choice, or not at all). I wish Enpass were open source, but I can understand their decision not to make it so -- its desktop application is free and its mobile apps include a small perpetual license f…
On windows there's some bug with a qt library they're using that, of all things, messes up network connectivity. It does polling of the network interfaces every 30 seconds (I believe) which causes traffic to completely stop for a couple of seconds.
On Android at least, it is EXTREMELY slow. Search works about 10% of the time, and the other 90% of the time you have to kill the app and relaunch it.

This won't help new users, but for people who own a previous release (before it turned into a "modern app") you can still download 1Password v4 for Windows. https://app-updates.agilebits.com/
I have it and it's terrible IMO.

How could that possibly happen? Local vaults can't just silently turn into cloud vaults, Why not, all they'd have to do is copy the local vault to their cloud service and you'd never notice until you discover that the local file you're syncing somewhere else no longer contains your new passwords. I'm not saying they've done this, but they could.
You're confusing what's theoretically possible with what they're actually doing. You asserted that they did something that they categorically do not do , and are trying to defend it by saying "but they could!". I don't understand why you're doing this though, unless you're trying to intentionally create FUD around 1Password.
I feel like we need to be talking about this more. For all the hullabaloo concerning password strength and encryption key length, MANY of our secret key entry methods would be quite easily defeated by a common webcam and a pair of human eyeballs.
That's kind of scary! It's not about to make me stop using passwords, but it is going to make me stop and think before I log into anything in a coffee shop.

You asked "How could that possibly happen". I gave an answer for how that could possibly happen.

Is 1Password membership not inclusive of advanced sync options? edit: I thought it was, but not sure.
Yes, you can make/use local vaults (and sync them e.g. using Dropbox) on iOS/macOS with a membership. Open 1Password, then "Preferences -> Advanced -> Allow creation of vaults outside of 1Password accounts". Also see: https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/comment/316463/...

I have it on all my Macs, my iPad and iPhone and sync via Dropbox has been flawless so far.
I'm a 1Password user, and have synced my vault between devices through both Dropbox and iCloud at various points. I can't help but feel like either there's something I'm missing or something everyone else is missing, which statistically means that it's most likely me. But: When I sync with iCloud, Apple can't read my vault--even though it's on their servers, it's strongly encrypted with my passphrase, and the encrypt…
Compare that with the app. Sure it has an updater, but you can use it offline. Don't trust it in day-to-day affairs? Block network access. You can reliably not trust it, and trust that it hasn't exposed your password behind your back (minus on-disk, but that's a risk either way, and it's more audit-able / third parties can build against the format to verify it independently).

You can do that, but those local vaults aren't part of the team/family.
Yes, this is correct. So if you want to share items or share a vault with a family member, you are obligated to store and sync with 1Password servers.
