It’s good, for privacy and all of course, but I remember here a Dell BIOS upgrade that basically wiped the TPM2.0 and so windows was asking for the recovery bitlocker key at boot. I have them on a encrypted USB key and anyway I can access my MS account from another device to find the key and type it.
But I’m sure a lot of people will basically say “well, fuck, I don’t have the key”, guaranteed.
From what I can tell when a customer brings in a computer they can’t boot and give me a look of “what did you just say to me you little shit” when I ask them if they can log into their microsoft account, they don’t give you a key.
Don’t know don’t care, anyone with half a brain saw windows was a sinking ship around the time they started putting ads in a $150 software but if that wasn’t enough forcing you to decline ads every 2 weeks or whatever is just psychopathic behavior so is the degraded search, I unironically would choose chrome Os or Ios over windows theses days especially since the world has moved to browsers and os doesn’t matter but any way you look at it the steam deck has proven windows has about as necessary as AOL these days, if you’re still using windows that’s a you problem, backwards compatibility be dammed you should not be relying on this company for anything crucial it can’t be trusted.
People who run 10,000 computers runs Linux its all but necessary for the low level access, user access control and maintenance, also you need far fewer people to deploy and manage.
Also maybe not 10,000 but I manage a network of 50

Which brings me to the question, how is Microsoft doing this, where will people’s keys be located? Do they force everybody to put in an USB stick?

I don’t understand why you replied.
Because they need to feel superior.
The Linux boys on this site actually make me want to try it less.
They’re the Rick and Morty fans all over again.
Hahahahahaha, oh yes, another “I have no idea how the world works Windows sucks” commenters.
Come back when you’ve managed a 10,000 computer enterprise.
No, wait, come back after managing a 12 computer SMB.

I always worry the the backup USB drive would be dead.
I guess I’m one minority but kind of like an ability to fetch the key from the web. Doing that securely of course can be tough.
Web. USB. Printout in a safe. On my phone. In Keypass. Etc, etc.
I’m not relying on a single copy.
Where’s your encrypted USB recovery key stored?! Is it encrypted USBs all the way down?
volume encrypted with veracrypt, it asks for a password to be mounted
