It really does baffle me that people put their trust in these companies, which will cut costs on security like any other company. Common sense and diligence is the best password manager.

Pay attention to the pseudo-legalese language they use.

"we have seen no evidence"
>Whether they did or did not, we don't really know. They might have, they might not have

"deployed containment and mitigation measures, and engaged a leading cybersecurity and forensics firm"
>We haven't done anything yet other than make a phone call to some experts

"we are evaluating further mitigation techniques to strengthen our environment"
>we got caught with our hand in the cookie jar, and we promise we won't do it again! but we might do something else!

It's all PR mumbo jumbo. The best thing a user can do is divest themselves of all involvement with "Lastpass". The name itself shows you just how much they prioritize customer data -- last.

You probably couldn't figure out how.

Dai Grepher: I was wrong. My entire theory is incorrect. Zero Mission IS a remake of Metroid.

I gave up LastPass years ago, I can't even log in, or reset my password to it anyways, switched over to another one after they borked their free set up.

I've always heard people recommend against Lastpass for the most part. I guess this is a good reason why.

literally the "common knowledge" that you shouldnt write your passwords down is dumb af. write them down (in the real world) and keep them someplace safe. you also have your social security number written down, it'll be okay!
