This is a very good analogy. Thank you. I'm going to use this in the future when explaining the issue to non-technical people.
Of course, if I may play devil's advocate: A criminal using a shredder has to go additional lengths of shredding the paper, but encryption is just always-on.
It's as if you had a shredder which magically shreds all your incriminating evidence you leave on paper.
- woodman 11y agoForget the shredder: the encrypted brute force resistant file system is just non-archival quality paper - flammable, sensitive to light, oxygen and humidity. The FBI isn't happy with the paper manufacturer, because if a criminal writes something on this paper they won't be able to read it in their fiery, ozone filled, blacklight lit underwater crime lab.
