I exported my LastPass 3 weeks ago. It was easy to make a .csv. Now, they have buried the ability to make a CSV file and made it damn difficult to get away from the clutches of LastPass. This is disgusting behavior on the part of LastPass.
LastPass changed exporting to make it harder to make a .csv

BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware
To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.
GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.
The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.
You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

Exporting is not something most people do often. (Maybe only once, if leaving the service.) Why would you want a feature almost never utilized to be featured prominently in the UI?

Export vault data from LastPass as a generic CSV file
You can export the contents of your LastPass vault as a CSV file so that you can keep a secure copy for your own records.

I imagine its not a question of whether it ultimately matters but one of timing (e.g., why do it now when many of the users need it to leave the service). I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but if true, it does loo suspicious.
I routinely export my blob to my encrypted hard drive. It gets backed up by two different backup services, iDrive, and Crashplan. Both use Zero-knowledge encryption before being sent to the cloud.Exporting is not something most people do often. (Maybe only once, if leaving the service.)

This only leaves me with questions about the security of both iDrive and Crashplan.
This password debacle is an onion.
Well I left LP after August and before the most recent revelation in December. I don't recall the export being especially prominent, it was in the advanced user interface and several layers deep. It's hard to imagine they could make it much more difficult to find (from a hidden at depth perspective) so perhaps they've made the UI less intuitive. You can see in the article linked they mention it changing at a specific version, but they still document it, so I don't really see what the big deal is. If they were trying to hide something, they wouldn't document it at all.
Obviously anyone who wants to do something, is having difficulty doing so, and needs an explanation from the manufactuter of how to get it done.
I beg to differ. I called them, or rather, they called me. I have Lastpass for families. I have been a LastPass user since the beginning. Normal users will give up. I will use LP until my current payment expires. Only then will I transfer to a new program. Why?
My iterations are set at 5 Million. I'm not concerned that my blob will be hacked in the future. The blob the hackers got was a 15-character Master Password and 100,100 iterations.
