Why are we talking “Dropbox” and password managers in one and the same sentence? Dropbox is the most dangerous service for file storage that Edward Snowden was warning about. If you put your files there it’s like sending them to the NSA directly. If they are encrypted this doesn’t change a lot: It’s just a matter of time they are cracked open as Snowden explains in his original documentary.
It’s like talking about privacy enforced by 1-to-1 encrypted chats on WhatsApp. We must stop trusting those services at all, please. Because, even if they wanted to oppose their government they can’t. By the US legislation they have to “serve the best interests of national security”. Even against EU legislation on EU territory. There are no limits.

There are two other candidates for (trustworthy?) password managers that I recently stumbled upon:
- KeeWeb (an active project implementing a KeePass-compatible application; project website)
- Firefox Lockwise (not sure how secure, usable and trustworthy it is; it’s fresh and new; Wikipedia article)
A larger list of password managers is also available from Wikipedia.
Any opinions on those candidates? My initial enthusiasm for Bitwarden has a bit vanished…
