>Its entirely plausible (especialyl these days) that police will sieze your machine but its not like the official regular police will torture you or anything. Another scenario is that someone just steals your machine and wants to see what you have on there of personal files which they can then use to extort you and whatnot.
Having been celled absent habeas corpus more than once, you'll forgive me if I cannot place faith in them following their own rules.

There's also gaining trend for folk to be forced to unlock their phone during muggings etc to raid their crypto, banks etc. I don't imagine computers to be too far behind, if it isn't already happening somewhere...

>It's a very good plan, because users lose their passwords all the time
It's a shit tier plan. The sort of plan you rely on when you wnat everything to turn to shit.

Yes, the common user is dumb enough to lose their passwords. That's why sane things exist like encrypted databases they can safely email to themselves and keep a copy offsite, throw on a cheap microSD card and bluetack to the underside of something where it's unlikely to be noticed. Like a bench in the park. Back of road signs. That sorta.

> and it enables Microsoft to help them get access to their data
Also enables microsoft to hand over these details when approached with pieces of paper. Or just simply use it themselves, as they have a long history of proven untrustability and privacy policies that say they can help themeselves as and when they want, and extend this capability to 'partners'.
