The SSD is encrypted with a rate-limited key in the Secure Enclave - unless someone has your password they’re not getting your data.
- slashdev 3y agoNot worth the liability. I’d rather the landfill and peace of mind than the money
- crazygringo 3y agoBut what liability? That's the whole point of encrypted storage. There is no liability if you used a reasonable password. Why not accept you have peace of mind and resell on eBay for parts? Assuming you didn't use "password123" or something.
- slashdev 3y agoEvery system has vulnerabilities. Plus that password I used has been in dataleaks. I don't trust it.

- slashdev 3y agoI trust the stuff I design least of all

- xvector 3y agoIt will be easy to break in time. Eventually you'll just be able to use a tool that shines a laser at the right bit and breaks the rate limiting. We've already seen similar attacks on hardware wallets previously thought invulnerable. I don't think any cryptography has stood the test of time. It's unlikely anything today will survive post-quantum.
