Marcus Adams<p>Yay <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Bitlocker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bitlocker</span></a>. Working on a laptop for my mother-in-law because she had been compromised by some tech support scammers. I took a Clonezilla backup of the drive then temporarily disabled secure boot so I could boot a live recovery media to back up her personal files. Found out it's Bitlocker protected. No biggie, I'll just reboot it without network access and use an external drive. Rebooted, re-enabled Secure Boot, aaaannnd Bitlocker now demands a recovery key before it'll boot.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a></p>

War on the Castle, Peace in the Valley🛡️🍉🇵🇸 🏳️🌈 🇺🇦Just nuked one of my windows laptops and installed Kubuntu with fulldiskencryption. We are in for hard times and bitlocker is known to be backdoored for the 3-letter agencies.
Of course, Canonical is likely also to "have a relationship" but the LEO documentation readily available online seems focused on Windows. FreeBSD is likely more secure, and it would be worthwhile researching which Linux kernels and distros are more likely to withstand a MAGA 2.0 DOJ probe.
