Slashdot's discussion of the Lastpass situation was titled LastPass Password Service Hacked and linked to an article at Kaspersky where their title said LastPass Probably Breached.

I use lastpass and 1password. FWIW, I the guys at AgileBits did a pretty reasonable job of not gaming lastpass's bad day. They did a blog post about a relevant detail of their own security, which really seems like a reasonable thing to do on a day like that.

In which case Kaspersky is already being untruthful, which is hardly surprising, considering they sell a competing product. I would expect more honesty when a company reports on it's own game: if you understand full well how subtle things are, then let your reporting reflect that.
