You've missed the point, which is that users have no way of verifying that the LastPass technology actually behaves the way their web site claims. For example, how would you verify that their software, installed on your own machine, doesn't make a hash of the key to your data and send it to them? Of course their web site says they don't do that, and if that's good enough for you, good luck. -- »Q« Kleeneness is next to Gödelness.
