Big shocker! Gotta love the collusion between government and big tech, it never ends, and our 4th amendment will ever be infringed through these loopholes -- and all will carry on not caring enough about it.

No one should be surprised by this. If you are doing anything on a computer and don’t want it to be readily available to governments or law enforcement you have to use Linux

Bitlocker isn't serious security. What is the easiest solution for non-technical users? Does FDE duplicate Bitlocker's funcationality?

A more honest title would be: judge order Microsoft to hand over bitlocker keys to FBI.
