The DEA was seeking information related to a LastPass customer, Stephan Caamano, suspected of dealing drugs via the dark Web and Reddit, according to a search warrant detailing the request. Passwords were not handed over, but LastPass did return IP addresses used by the suspect, alongside information about when Caamano’s LastPass account was created and when it was last used. No passwords availableDespite its demand, the government could never have expected passwords from LastPass. A LogMeIn spokesperson explained: “User passwords stored on LogMeIn's servers are only done so in an encrypted format. … Asking us for data was useless.”Despite the limited data they can get, the cops are making demands of password managers.
