"BitlLocker, the proprietary disk encryption program that ships with every Windows version since Vista."
This is misleading - Windows 7 product line has Bitlocker only for Ultimate and Enterprise. Even Windows 7 Professional users cannot use Bitlocker without upgrading to Ultimate. Very unfortunate.

- wahsd 12y agoThere has been a suggestion that the sourceforge post is a canary triggered in a "self-destruct" sequence. I am wondering if the suggestion to use bitLocker, which as you point out is not available to everyone, is also a signal. I want to suggest reading into it something that doesn't exist, but why would TrueCrypt people, if they are what we want them to be, suggest using bitLocker of all things. No better alternative and better than nothing??? I don't know how I feel about that.
- higherpurpose 12y agoTheir "suggestions" for Linux and Mac OS seem just as fishy, almost like done on purpose to raise suspicion and hint that something bad is going on: https://twitter.com/matthew_d_green/status/471998315437883392 https://twitter.com/matthew_d_green/status/47199831543788339... http://www.reddit.com/r/netsec/comments/26pz9b/truecrypt_development_has_ended_052814/chtfb30 http://www.reddit.com/r/netsec/comments/26pz9b/truecrypt_dev...
