UK Government Wants a Backdoor Into Windows

--- Quote from: "Slashdot" --- No Backdoor in Vista
mytrip wrote to mention a C|Net article stating that Vista will not have a security backdoor after all. From the article: "'The suggestion is that we are working with governments to create a back door so that they can always access BitLocker-encrypted data,' Niels Ferguson, a developer and cryptographer at Microsoft, wrote Thursday on a corporate blog. 'Over my dead body,' he wrote in his post titled Back-door nonsense."

Lead Head:
Thank you for that information.:)
Aloone_Jonez:
I should bloodywell think so - a back door would've been a stupid idea.
Orethrius:
Yes, nobody would EVER expect Microsoft to deny such a deplorable practice.
Then again, there's something to be said for "plausible deniability."
H_TeXMeX_H:
Man, that guy Niels Ferguson's got guts ... Over my dead body ... he better watch out that Ballmer doesn't Fucking Kill
