This is ridiculous.

There are a lot of people here criticising MSFT for implementing a perfectly reasonable encryption scheme.

This isn’t some secret backdoor, but a huge security improvement for end-users. This mechanism is what allows FDE to be on by default, just like (unencrypted) iCloud backups do for Apple users.

Calling bs on people trying to paint this as something it’s not is not “whiteknighting”.
