People accusing others of lying all the time is a major problem in current societal discourse.

It’s not a lie if the speaker believes it to be true; it’s just a mistake. A lie must have the intention to mislead behind it.

I don’t dispute that there is a lot of, perhaps way more, lying going on, especially in politics now, but let’s not both inflame opinions and cheapen the word ‘lie’ by just using it for non-deliberate falsehoods.

It's really not so hard to either install 1Password afresh and check, or to check the documentation.

I would give them the benefit of the doubt but it's pretty clear from the initial response on github that privacy or security decisions of users do not matter much.

I'm looking forward to that latest Elizabeth Holmes documentary.
