I must say that Mental Outlaw is known for using the wrong terminology, for example calling closed-source software "spyware", which bothers everyone who works in the cybersecurity industry because this is blatantly wrong. I assume it's the same story with this supposed "backdoor". |

I'm sure you're right, but it helps for a normie to privacy/security like my self, and viewer engagement. You're right in that this isn't a backdoor. Its an exploit hes calling a backdoor. |

It's a zero day that breaks bitlocker using some files on a USB. Also spyware and bloatware are fairly often used for closed-source software because almost always closed-source code is either spyware or bloatware or both. |

Mental outlaw is a bit of nutter IMO. I couldn't live with that level of paranoia, so I stopped watching him. |

Correct, there is extremely scant evidence for it being a backdoor in the video |

So... can the FsTx file from my computer disable bitlocker on yours? Because that would be interesting. |

I'm not even sure what FsTx is but my guess is that you need a patched one, although it'd be an interesting to try if you got two PCs |

Yeah it so sad to start watching an Linux content creator. Yet again having to drop them when they are yet another alt-right wing nutjob. |

You're into Linux because either you want to escape capitalism/closed source monitoring every aspect of your life, or because muh freedom. |
