Assuming someone scanned my implants, they will only get encrypted data. They would also need the high entropy passphrase in my brain to make any use of it.
Assuming my HSM devices are damaged, (Or assuming I manage to forget my pin 3 times be it accidentally or intentionally), It would require more than my implant to reconstruct keys to my password manager data is encryptded to should I forget this high entropy passphrase.
It would also require finding multiple individuals that all live in different countries to obtain the needed Shamir's Secret Sharing peices.
I know a lot of people in a lot of countries and I highly doubt anyone is going to be able to identify the correct ones much less have the legal jurisdiction to compel them all to reveal their SSSS parts.
It allows me to honestly say it is not possible for me to decrypt the needed data.
In a more probable scenario than government actors coming after me... if I were to suffer a head injury these individuals could help me recover my access. If I were to die, they can ensure my assets are made available to others of my choosing.
Having an escape hatch made of distributed trust solves a lot of problems.
- tribby 9y agolate to reply, but thanks for the explanation. from the way you described it initially (car keys specifically) it sounded like no pin was needed.
