Besides, the user also had a Windows laptop encrypted with Bitlocker, and the police failed to crack that one (see top comment).
- Gasp0de 4y agoI think you are mistaken, the original article in french states that the BitLocker computer was not cracked by the local police, but was accessed later by some cyber-department of the police: https://nantes.indymedia.org/posts/87395/une-lettre-divan-enferme-a-la-prison-de-villepinte-perquisitions-et-disques-durs-dechiffres/ https://nantes.indymedia.org/posts/87395/une-lettre-divan-en.... You are right that you can choose to backup recovery keys to the cloud, I just guessed that this would be one possible scenario.
