This one will hurt: I love 1Password as a product.

@ben @1password Disappointing is such a gentle word…

[csolisr@hub.azkware.net]

At this point, checking out of technology and learning to live without electricity is starting to become more morally attractive with each passing day...

[andjsch@mastodon.social]

@scott @ben @aliasvault That sucks! Yeah, no PP then it is. I also tried Bitwarden in the past but I really think it lacks in quality. Ideally the new alternative would be open source. But I'd appreciate a writeup of your findings.

[scottytrees@mastodon.social]

@ben never beholden yourself to just one company. always have a backup in the wind, just in case.

[crazyeddie@mastodon.social]

@stanley @ben No good reason to get rid of your laptop but I wouldn't go buying from someone I knew was a Nazi or openly supported them again after learning that.

@stanley @ben It should be noted that Omarchy as a project is (in the words of its creator) specifically political to “keep clowns out of Linux”.

By clowns he means trans people and that they’re mentally ill and should be laughed at and forcefully driven out.

@Downes @ben @1password got thinking about the fun stuff like the security and authentication model, and possibly a plausible-deniability-duress feature. But i realise the least appealing bit will be writing browser interoperability

[derekheld@infosec.exchange]

@ben @1password it’s going to take me some time because I have an entire family to move, but it’s not a question of if it’s only a matter of when I get everyone off 1Password.

@ben @1password this piece is solid. It is missing what I think was the most outrageous post, with the explicit call to action at the end:

@stanley @ben Well, if you're just looking for some other open hardware to try, MNT has a new Pocket Reform coming out that looks sweet, and they're a lot stronger on actually releasing specifications than Framework ever was https://shop.mntre.com/products/mnt-pocket-reform

@ben @1password @thomasfuchs Our business adopted both 1Password and Basecamp when those products were new. Canceled Basecamp after DHH bullshit London post, canceling 1Password today.

[at1st@mstdn.ca]

@stanley @ben I guess the main way I would frame it is that "While Palantir makes fascism their mission statement, 1Password is not making fascism *their* mission statement - their mission statement is more about making money that they're putting towards someone else who *is* making fascism their mission statement.".

The indirection feels like they know they can't be Palantir, but they could fund Palantir with a smokescreen.

[tmw@ioc.exchange]

@reinier @stanley @ben cool if so, but there was never any denouncement (that i saw?), only a pathetic defense of their "big tent" approach to donations, which is always bullshit

[groxx@hachyderm.io]

@ben@social.benjaminturner.me @ben@werd.social @1password yep, that's when I ducked out too. It was very clear where the company was going when they said that an in-browser subscription service was more secure than a local one. You cannot be both sane and have your users' best interests in mind while claiming that, so one or both must be false.
(*Offering* that is fine, many people prefer it. Claiming it's more secure, or better for your users, is not.)

And then the headcount at the company exploded. Another not-so-subtle hint about their goals.

1Password has not been customer-friendly for a very long time. They don't deserve your money, leave now rather than wait until they start impacting you personally.

"Trump Says He's a 'Nationalist'" - The New York Times
All those supporters are also nationalist'.
"'I am a nationalist,' Trump proclaims at Houston rally"
"New York Times' Proof that Trump Is Now a Fascist "
Noted; NYT is a co-conspirator to fascism or state press.
Won't hear them do a story on how billionaire fascist overthrew the USA.

[cascheranno@hachyderm.io]

@ben as far as the _mechanics_ of vaults, I’ve gone to BitWarden, and on iOS, Linux browsers, windows browsers, and Mac browsers, the plugins exist to make password mgmt pretty transparent. Easily installed, too.

[imbl@social.treehouse.systems]

@stanley @ben this isn't just a project led by someone with hateful views. the entire point of the omarchy "foundation" is to fund fashtech and fascists in tech, to create a parallel industry and power structure that is explicitly fascist. this is a seed accelerator for the next palantir, and 1password just signed up to fund fascist startups for years

@ben @1password
Why wouldn't you just use Keepass? Its free and it does everything 1Password does.
