Kai @kai.lucasbaradan.com · 28/01/2026Holy hell this thing sounds like a demon (uh, loud audio warning) 120
Kai @kai.lucasbaradan.com · 23/01/2026This is tricky, bitlocker itself is secure and MS and it's developers have refused to put backdoors into it - but it's also designed for enterprise where admins *do* need access, and the home version needs a cloud recovery option or folks will get locked out (but local is an option) 280
Kai @kai.lucasbaradan.com · 11/01/2026Apu: Quickly, tell me. What is your favourite movie, book and food? Manjula: Uh, the answer to all three is Fried Green Tomatoes. 0110

Kai @kai.lucasbaradan.com · 02/10/2025Eh, read the actual description of the service, it's absolutely useful for a security system to be able to do this... And yeah it's part of their paid Google Home tier 010
Kai @kai.lucasbaradan.com · 02/10/2025Nah, these are legitimately useful for a security system (certainly much better than the current mess of scrolling through a ton of borderline useless 'package/vehicle/person detected' alerts or scrubbing through hours of video to figure out what happened) 100
Kai @kai.lucasbaradan.com · 29/05/2025Well this was a lot of fun to wake up to (in Koh Lanta, Thailand) 040
![According to Microsoft sources,[51] BitLocker does not contain an intentionally built-in backdoor, so there is no Microsoft-provided way for law enforcement to have guaranteed access to the data on a user's drive. In 2006, the UK Home Office expressed concern over the lack of a backdoor and tried entering into talks with Microsoft to get one introduced.[52] Microsoft developer and cryptographer Niels Ferguson denied the backdoor request and said, "over my dead body".[53] Microsoft engineers have said that United States Federal Bureau of Investigation agents also put pressure on them in numerous meetings to add a backdoor, although no formal, written request was ever made; Microsoft engineers eventually suggested that agents should look for the hard copy of the encryption key that the BitLocker program suggests that its users make.[54]
Niels Ferguson's position that "back doors are simply not acceptable"[53] is in accordance with Kerckhoffs's principle. Stated by Netherlands-born cryptographer Auguste Kerckhoffs in the 19th century, the principle holds that a cryptosystem should be secure, even if everything about the system, except the encryption key, is public knowledge.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:p3z5egy3siqwa3yorxt2hd2q/bafkreigge4v5vbckylmrrctveml5o3udlf5s5dof7iahh5im3onoz6s6aa)
