[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] 1Password has none, KeePass has none... So why are there seven embedded trackers in the LastPass Android app?

[Mitchell I. Wolfe]

To All:

The companies that provide password managers can change policies or be 
bought by another company that may change terms of service and privacy 
policies.

Also be aware as in this WSJ article [1] about retirement accounts that:
"...Providing passwords to third-party services that aggregate passwords 
or financial-account data could be grounds for denying reimbursement if 
"our investigation determines that a fraud event is traceable" to that 
service..."
