Seeing this kind of friction makes me more confident in VeraCrypt. The tools that never seem to run into trouble with platform gatekeepers are the ones I'd worry about.

That seems like a very nonsensical stance.

Well look at something like ANOM. The FBI encouraged its use. Because it was run by the FBI and they could see all the private messages.

If Veracrypt was a honeypot, the powers that be would go out of their way to make it as easy to use as possible. They'd instantly sack whoever made this decision, and reverse it.

So is coreutils a honeypot?

The biggest risk in encryption software is that you lose access to your data. You seem to be ignoring that risk completely and focusing on something else entirely.

I don't think you would loose access. You can always recover data on an open platform such as Linux.
