So all we have to do is trust that Microsoft is:
a) Telling us the truth
b) Capable of programming BitLocker properly

I suppose the answer to both those questions depends on your opinion of Microsoft.

Was I the only one who laughed my ass of when XP was released with “Remote Assistance”? I stood in front of my tv when they announced it on TechTV laughing because they built in a trojan to their own system.

Very nice article on the vista operating system, but
The real problem is that Microsoft and other members of the
trusted computing group have already put this stuff in motherboards,CPU’s,and hard drives.
and that wont be the end.
Video display cards, sound cards, Ethernet cards, that won’t work because a digital flag is set, or worse, all of your media files erased.
Why? Because the copyright holder remotely erased it, along with
the software that you can”t prove to them that you bought.
Remember that a trusted computer to the corporations is one that they control,Not the user.

Not that there has to be one intentionally, a cracker is bound to find one within the first week of Vista’s launch.
