Can you trust 37signals with your password?
If the server can decode it so can anyone who has access to the server. Not only that, but 37S reveals the password of other people's accounts to the admin. Pathetic.

No, revealing people's passwords is pathetic. They are a multi-million dollar company, it's about time they Get Real.

"If the server can decode it so can anyone who has access to the server."
Semantics.
Any type of security made by humans is breakable by humans.
Your reasoning is flawed.
