What, you thought M$ hasn't had backdoors in every piece of their encryption stack for decades? You know, they accidentally released a Windows 2000 update that had NSA keys clearly labeled.....

From the post:

>Microsoft provided the FBI with the recovery keys to unlock encrypted data on the hard drives of three laptops as part of a federal investigation, Forbes reported on Friday. Many modern Windows computers rely on full-disk encryption, called BitLocker, which is enabled by default. This type of technology should prevent anyone except the device owner from accessing the data if the computer is locked and powered off.

Well of course it did. Anyone remember TrueCrypt? They just decided to shut that down for no (((reason))). Liklely they were told, give it up or we will [TOS] your entire family.

Yes, though, Truecrypt also had some publicly disclosed major vulns that they basically just decided to not fix. It was probably a DARPA project the entire time with plenty of backdoors.

(((If))) you believe that. I seem to recall that it was challenged that it wasn’t the case then they just folded up. So who knows. I took that to be “close your shit and everyone goes home” keep at this and people you know start dieing in car crashes.

The rumors I heard said that one of the original dev's was found dead in suspicious circumstances and a few months later they basically just decided to shut down. Most of the OG dev's were fully annon and not known publicly. I have a feeling there is a reason they decided to shut down.

Truecrypt kept that banker out of jail.

Guns are used by niggers. White use guns to protect themselves from niggers.

Nothing is altruistically used for only good.

We were discussing this at the office this morning and I mentioned what a sad sack the FBI is as they couldn't break into a bitlocker encrypted hard drive.
