    This is an interesting tool that I’m going to back pocket, so thanks for that. That being said, any trackers and such on Bitwarden.com root page isn’t really indicative of the real product, though I’ll say it reflects poorly. That page basically is a sales pitch put together by probably a completely separate marketing team.

      Blacklight is basically a front-end for DuckDuckGo’s open source tracker radar tool. https://github.com/duckduckgo/tracker-radar

      In a world increasing dominated by surveillance capitalists and dystopian tech, conscientious consumerism is one of the most effective tools we still have to effect change. Google chooses to sell tech to a Far-Right government’s engaged in ethnic cleansing, Bitwarden chooses Google as a business partner for analytics, marketing, cloud services, etc… I choose to not use Bitwarden.

      Another resource to assist in choosing which services to use is the open project PrivacySpy. Bitwarden doesn’t score very well by their metrics either.
