I worry about Dropbox + security. The fact that I'm sharing folders publicly with other people in the same directory that I have private data, worries me. Lots of room for human error
Why does 1Password need dropbox? It would make much more sense if they had their own cloud solution
Edit: Don't get me wrong, I love dropbox and I'm sure 1password is great. But I don't feel secure with dropbox (ever lost a file that was in your dropbox because you or a colleague made a mistake on a synced computer?) and I hate the idea that a person could have a copy of a single file with every one of my clients critical passwords, encrypted or not
Your password file is still encrypted, so would-be attackers would still need your master password. As for developing a cloud solution... who knows. Maybe they considered it orthogonal to the goals of 1Password to develop and maintain that entire infrastructure.
What? No it wouldn't. The fact that you can use your existing, free Dropbox account means that 1Password can provide you a lot more value at no cost to you or them.
And it's not like 1Password doesn't encrypt what it puts on Dropbox.
