@Xeniax It should have not but they offer to store the keys "safely" in their cloud 🙂
@Xeniax This procedure is akin to covering up those who actually commit crimes.
And ordinary citizens suffer as a result.
@Xeniax OFC #CensorBoot never was about #Security and #Microsoft having #Govware - #Backdoors in their #CryptoAPI is nothing new.
If this doesn't disqualify Windows & Microsoft in general then those who made that decision should be fired.
The only secure #encryption is #FLOSS with #SelfCustody of all the keys…
@kkarhan 1000% agree
@Xeniax they used to store the encryption key in the registry https://sawyerfam06.blogspot.com/2008/09/bitlocker-registry-keys.html idk where they are now though
