Wow, that’s a load of crap for sure. Not that it’s entirely unexpected tbh. LastPass was bought for the large userbase and the plan was to figure out later how to monetize them. Lots of hand-waving, little substance. Initially the lastpass teams were beefed up so much they filled all free space in the office. That lasted less than a year (which is around when I left). The embarrassing security incidents started after that. They really fumbled this, overall. Which is a shame, I used to be an early LastPass user, but moved on to 1pw long ago.
