  • So say for example that someone manages to get into a position (or the Bitwarden Devs) to alter the code for the Bitwarden Chrome extension and compromise it, this code is then deployed from their update service to your device. You then use the compromised extension to login to your vault, at that point your vault contents could be extracted for a third-party to view.

    I just want to say, this was something I saw another user put up as a risk on another thread a few months back, so I don’t know if that’s actually feasible to achieve or what protections Bitwarden have in place to stop such a thing happening.

    Even so, I still use Bitwarden. If you’re getting that deep into the weeds, unless you are writing all the code yourself or interrogating the code others put up before updating your system this sort of thing would always appear to be a risk.




  • I’ve poked around the internet a bit and there does appear to be companies that manufacture in the UK. But of course they would be more expensive and would cut the profit margin of those wanting to sell these. Then again how deep do you want to go, only cotten grown in the UK, only dye made in the UK?

    All I see is far right groups proving how globalisation can be beneficial for cheaper prices but also how as a country you should have a plan for your workers to be fitting into the market in other ways. But I guess that’s a harder message to package to a voter that wants simple answers.
