I might just be tired of hearing the same arguments over and over, but it I did see the assertion that BitLocker shouldn't be used to keep your "secrets". As if the choice of which drive encryption software you use on your laptop should be your primary concern when securing yourself against an adversary. (The primary concern is to thoroughly evaluate your adversary and look at your available options for opsec and InfoSec. Maybe you need drive encryption. Maybe you need burners. Maybe you should only use public terminals. Etc. It also means seriously asking yourself if you actually have an adversary or just like to think that you might some day.)

Just sort of saying..."How can you trust MS NOT to have backdoored bitlocker just use Linux. Suck it NSA." Won't actually make you secure.
