What we really need is plausible deniability - if they don't know you use 1password, they don't know to ask for it.

Is plausible deniability the right term here? Usually that's about the ability to deny having known about or authorised something after it's already been discovered.

I'm not really sure how you'd refer to the concept "they don't know I have it, so they don't know to ask". Security through ignorance?

I guess it's a type of steganography then.
