I don’t recommend lastpass but notes were encrypted. This stemmed from an original miscommunication from a CS rep to a customer before it blew up but was later corrected.

Independently verified because we can’t take Lastpass at their word: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lastpass/comments/zzz5x4/notes_are_...

That was my understanding as well, but there were definitely unencrypted portions like URL. I assume for sharing purposes.

Yeah you’re right, URL was unencrypted along with some others.

Doesn’t seem critical if we’re talking Facebook and twitter but becomes problematic with human rights orgs and the like.

The justification was that it was used to match login fields against vault items. I’m no crypto expert but it seemed flimsy to me
