Re: Lastpass
"The PasswordMaker Firefox plugin doesn't require remote services as far as I can tell. Its cross platform (edge to firefox plugins) and open source as well."
If you are a premium user of LastPass, as a lot of the people affected clearly are, then you are login off line on your mobile device where your vault is stored locally. In fact the main reason to go premium is that you get the mobile versions included. So I think all of these people complaining that they could not get any work done actually *could* have done but chose not to, so the outage was not as much of a big deal as they are making out.
That said, it looks like LastPass dealt with it really badly from a PR POV.
