#Microsoft #Thurrott pretends people who reject #TPM are "enthusiasts"

"a more interesting question is whether the redmond mafia will force Backdoors11 onto computers running older Backdoors like they did with Backdoors10" http://techrights.org/irc-archives/irc-log-techbytes-280821.html#tAug%2028%2012:59:29 #microsoft #windows #vista11 #tpm

#vista11 is just a variant. It is a variant of a virus called #vista10 and with #tpm being mandatory it's even more lethal. #microsoft #windows

#TPM secured #BitLocker is easy to hack from a stolen Laptop...

After days of troubleshooting, comparing captures, and pulling hair, we finally figured out it was a combination of different bit masks for the TPM command packets as well as a different regex for finding the key. We made a pull request for the fix and now the bitlocker-spi-toolkit can parse these types of requests as well. Once we had that, lo and behold, the key popped out.

Perfect, now that we have the decryption key, let’s decrypt the SSD and see what we have.

Microsoft: You Can't Get Around Windows 11 Requirements

Welcome to the more secure, more locked-down future.

Do you #trust your #TPM chip?

What it is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Platform_Module
How #Microsoft uses it: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/information-protection/tpm/trusted-platform-module-overview

TPM is actually a nice thing

So much whining about some new Windows on my TL and the one thing that sounds really good about it, #tpm that is, people seem to go bonkers about. Said it before: TPM is there for the user. Even on #Linux. Use it! It is not some magic DRM machine.
