Pretty much one long add for 1Password.

Full disclosure: I've been using 1Password for nine years

When I search for pwned passwords, it doesn't know any of my new ones, it doesn't know any of my less-common ones, but the basic, default, I-don't-care-about-this-password I used to use is very much in there. And when I search that password in 1Password it pops up 81 times. Apparently I have a Spotify account. Who knew?

Watchtower is the most discouraging thing in the world. When Heartbleed came through it told me I needed to change 281 passwords. Right now, with the password generator in fairly regular use, it's telling me I need to change 331.

This is no way to live.
