Heck, I guess I'm just paranoid, but I don't save any passwords. I type them all in manually.

Have you ever been a victim of hacking? I haven't.



The nude photo hacks were a combination of a failure on Apple's side to provide one of the most basic items of password security (limited number of attempts) and also passwords that were too simple. Have you ever been hacked?

It's all good and well that they claim that, but do you know anything of that as a matter of fact? The only way you could know that is if you write it yourself from scratch without using any third party libraries. I'd rather print all of my my passwords on a piece of paper and store it in my safe, than put it on a website. Heck even notepad on your desktop is better if your PC is secure.
As far as I know the statistic is still true that the safest is to write down your password and keep it safe physically. At some point there used to be paranoia and it was "bad practice" to do this, but seriously, which person breaking into your house is not only going to take/read something like that, but see it beyond anything other than chicken-scratching...

While lastpass does intrigue me, I get turned off at the very mention of "cloud-based".
