This is like the 5th time Lastpass has been hacked. If you're still using them at this point you kinda had it coming.

The trouble with the cloud, and this really is completely unfixable due to the nature of the beast, is that it represents one single, centralized and juicy target for hackers.

If you use enough passwords and need to be secure enough to use a password manager, then you should probably learn to use passwords responsibly instead. Learn how to create your own password system...in your head...and don't use password managers.
