I'm not saying nothing is secure, I'm saying that there's no way to be sure. Even if the math is bulletproof, are you sure the software implementation is bulletproof too? Even then, maybe there's something in your hardware that defeat the whole thing, who knows? When the stakes are so high that this kind of agencies are trying to get your data, that would be a risky bet to assume they won't be able to crack your encrypted partition. I'm pretty sure if you ask them nicely to give you a few of their old encrypted hard drives they wouldn't comply. Why not?

No, this reasoning doesn't convince me because it's still "but what if". Like when people keep on telling we just have to travel the stars to planet B and it's possible because maybe we'll pretty soon discover FTL. > When the stakes are so high that this kind of agencies are trying to get your data, that would be a risky bet to assume they won't be able to crack your encrypted partition. I do agree. Even if I knew the NSA was after me and I knew how to secure my laptop with custom Libreboot and other things I strongly believe the laptop should not be used to discuss matters or store data related to activities that got the agency on my back. I will do an humane error and compromise myself before they need to use strong tech against my laptop.
