If you don't think there was some three way horse trading done to complete both of these multi year extraditions, between administrations seeking a win they could brag about, then, I don't know what to tell you man

I haven't watched a single YouTube advertisement in 5 years
right up until they can't tell which ms account they used to register their machine, up until then, it's very secure, sure
If you have a microsoft account that you've attached to at least one windows profile, then that machine has been registered to that account, and the bitlocker key will be stored and kept to be viewed and retrieved by logging into their microsoft account, if the machine has not been registered to a microsoft account you will either have to have jotted the very lengthy key down or have saved it to a usb
and i work with dozens of disparate windows systems on multiple hardware platforms on the regular, the speed degradation with bitlocker encryption still exists, and is noticeable
well, if the customer provides them the bitlocker key, then they can access and manipulate the data on the drive, if not, they're fucked
yeah, no kidding, a real bitch if you want to back up your systems, and the hit to processing speed is significant, though with it enabled, the days of popping out a hard drive, and grabbing whatever the hell's on there with a usb connection are over
everybody's gotta have a code, man
you've fallen for it
dude complaining about apple being proprietary in 2024, when apple has built their entire business from day one by being the most draconian closed loop proprietary hardware/software model since personal computers were invented. i mean, sure, i get it's annoying bullshit, but you're literally getting what you signed up for when you decided apple was the way to go, lol. i hope this android/google action will lead to opening up the apple ecosystem as well, but i wouldn't use any of their bullshit if you paid me, i remember the days of the ibm clones, and apple telling us all to go fuck ourselves.
