The problem here would have been having someone awesome like yourself convincing everyday people not to use password managers because they're higher risk than their existing dumpster fire—which is wrong. Glad we're in agreement. Again, nice find, and Happy Friday.

I think what he is saying is that he really wants to tell everyone to use password managers but every time he looks at one he finds major flaws. I feel just as conflicted.

I hear you. And it's why I don't recommend them to people with good security hygiene. I think the risk is too high. But for most people—who have THE ABSOLUTE WORST security hygiene—it's my opinion that it's better for them. And that's 95% of people. Hence my position.

Do you think it must be a safe and trustworthy password manager, or is literally any password manager, even if it has a remote shell okay? Please explain why you won't qualify that it has to be a safe password manager.

Tavis, when I recommend software I hardly ever tell people to find ones with lots of vulnerabilities. Again, I am NOT making the argument that the worst possible password manager is better than the best possible non-password-manager. And there are infinite shades in-between.

I can't even parse this statement, what is a "non-password-manager"? It seems to be very hard for you to say that "Most people should use a safe and trustworthy password manager".

Then what are you complaining to me about? Please tell me what it is you disagree with. Literally just link me the tweet you disagree with.

You’ve been criticizing people for months for giving the advice to use a password manager. If you don’t think you’ve been making that argument then most of the people watching are very confused right now.

You are a crazy person Daniel. You know exactly what I've been saying, because you literally argue with every single tweet. e.g.https://twitter.com/taviso/status/842807269058207744 …
