"An unfortunate side effect from law enforcement is it would be technically fairly seriously difficult to dig encrypted material out of the system if it has been set up competently."

Technically fairly seriously difficult? Wow.

I'm sure the FBI/CIA/NSA already have this "backdoor" solution. Actually, they've probably had it for every version of Windows since 3.1.

The system uses BitLocker Drive Encryption which can be linked to a chip called TPM (Trusted Platform Module) in the computer's motherboard.

The system is aimed at preventing tampering with computers but it would also help prevent people from downloading unlicensed films or media.

WTF :shocked:

Meh. It'd be funny if Microsoft told the UK and the EU to fvck off, pulled out of Europe completely, and ceased all tech support/updates for European versions of Windows.

I give it two weeks before someone finds a way to effectively block it.

Considering TPM's been out for awhile, I don't see where all this furor is coming from...

If you bust some guy you suspect of pedo-peddling, he's not going to bust up his TPM module, as the data "cannot" be accessed without it...

Of course, intel obviously has workarounds the TPM system, so I'm sure the authorities could just ask intel to decrypt it...

The kiddie porn fanatics are always the scape-goat for the govt to spy on the whole populus.

Someone call NAMBLA and get them on the case!

Hardware firewalls and hand selected asian computer components for the win.
