It sounds like they plan on releasing the technical details in the coming days/weeks. I'm curious how its de-identified and processed.

It's not for me, no. I guess it depends if you're going to be logging in on random computers frequently (I do not). I printed out a hardcopy of their "recovery kit" which has your secret code and put it in my firesafe. It's a nice extra layer of protection vs only a single master password which can be sniffed especially since it contains the credentials to my entire life.

Also I always have my phone on me which is logged in to 1Password, and I can view my secret key from there wherever I am.
