This guy's priorities are backward. He blows a gasket over 1Password not being 100% clear about their feature set (and somehow this offense is great enough to warrant dropping the product entirely), but seems unconcerned that he's entrusting his passwords to closed-source software. Why would any security-conscious person give 1Password a second thought when there are open-source alternatives?

I trust the security team behind 1Password more than a community of volunteers around open source password managers.

Fully agreed. When it comes to security, most people don’t know half as much as they think they do.

This argument is just degrees of risk. He's much safer using any password manager than not one at all.
