NOTHING is forever...
Here are tips for how to stop the latest MacOS upgrade now, and if you want, until the end of support comes years later.

Wow, so 1Password has increased its already expensive services. I have only used it for work/volunteer related stuff. I've been using Apple's Keychain and now Passwords App for years.
If you're on a Mac/iOS system and want to switch, 9to5 has a good run down on how to export your 1Password database and bring it into Passwords.
if you've never used a Password Manager, you really really should.
