Does anyone remember seeing this? I really want to know if there was an update to his case. I thought I saw it on HN but I can NOT for the life of me find it now anywhere. Normally I’m not one to buy into “XYZ scrubbed QWERTY from the internet”, but I absolutely can not find this story ANYWHERE now and it seems like it should be easily found with keywords.
If anyone interested has a Twitter account, would you mind searching there for Truecrypt and Veracrypt to see what comes up? That’s the one place I haven’t looked because I don’t have an account.
Very scary if true. 30+ characters should be more than enough, not withstanding variables like using a password vs a pass phrase, if it was generated by a computer or human, etc, but very very scary.
Basically this goes to show that, again, if you’re on a nation states radar their is almost nothing you can do to stop them.
