What specifically did they do to trick you into paying?


Doesn’t really matter what Lastpass did wrong, does it? The point is that trustworthiness is the single most important value for someone who wants users to entrust them with their credentials. Another point is how easily they can lose users. The poster lost trust in them, and was able to swap them out in a day.

Read the "reception" section.


If it were an individual experience, I would agree with you, but it is public knowledge.

There were press releases and emails and stuff.

I also switched away from last pass then.


It's very easy to overestimate what "everyone knows".


Public knowledge is not the same as common knowledge, I agree.
