Both the Fastmail[0] and Privacy [1] integrations have made 1Password a joy to use in the past few years. I've used premium BitWarden in the past, but the UX of 1Password is hard to beat. Congrats to the 1Password team!

`But we don’t just want to keep up; our goal is to push the envelope and explore beyond the boundaries of traditional password management.` Hmmm, sounds like the time to migrate may be sooner than I'd hoped.

So that means what? My password manager is going to start crypto-mining, and share the profits with me? My password manager is going to report all the sites that I have stored passwords for back to the companies?

Whatever the case may be, I'm sure it's going to turn out to be something completely worthless to me.

Fortunately, there's always Keepass, which keeps plugging away doing exactly what it says on the tin.

You can never trust cloud-hosted password managers..

Anyone have any insight on how a company like this would even use $620m?

I predict the way and death of all "cloud companies" that start out doing one thing well; they'll add features and document sharing and what not until it becomes an unholy mixture of Dropbox et al trying to "compete" with Office 365 for some reason.

So... Dropbox, then?
