    I thought that it was encrypted if your home directory was encrypted? The impression that I got was that it was just a SQLite database stored in the clear. The user must certainly be able to make queries of that database in order for it to work, so even if it’s hosted by a non-user service, malware running locally will still be able to exfiltrate the data.

      All true, which is what I meant by “not well” encrypted. It’s technically encrypted, but for all practical purposes it might as well not be.
