My wife asked me to help her with her Windows laptop one day. She was stuck at the bitlocker prompt and of course didn't remember enabling it or being given a password. I was like, WTF, they're just randomly turning this on by surprise now? LOL
Luckily she was able to eventually get it unlocked by calling MS support.
I like the "encryption, but we have the keys" approach. Makes it very secure, especially since MS never had any security breach or leak, ever.
It's obviously mainly supposed to protect against basic thieves in this configuration.
Some some needs to do a "what if Microsoft bought Signal" parody
Which hopefully wasn't a 1-800 number flashing obnoxiously on the screen. ๐
