Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do modern phones have device encryption on by default, but computers do not? Why doesn't computers also get encryption on by default?English22·2 years agoSpeaking about Windows PC.
- Not everybody thinks they need such security because it’s their home computer.
- Enabling device encryption necessitates the backup of the encryption key (and backup of the data files); otherwise, you may lose all the contents when things go wrong (like the key disappears after an update). People who don’t understand the tech may not know where their backup keys are.
- Windows Home encryption is a hassle since you don’t have finer-grain control over the encryption, unlike Bitlocker on Windows Pro. This is the lamest scheme for Windows. You only get practical basic security with Windows Pro.
- Enabling system drive encryption may make your system backup/recovery harder or impossible in some configurations. Figuring this out may require some technical expertise.

Alt-speak: we only care if the media report that our ad placements were next to questionable contents.
Apparently, Google has also taken to suck deez nuts.
Shoppers of Dell Australia’s website who were buying a computer would see an offer for a Dell display with a lower price next to a higher price with a strikethrough line. That suggested to shoppers that the price they’d pay for the monitor if they added it to their cart now would be lower than the monitor’s usual cost. But it turns out the strikethrough prices weren’t the typical costs. Sometimes, the lower price was actually higher than what Dell Australia typically charged.
Don’t believe in ads, folks. If prices are important for you, do you own research.
Whatever happens on the inside of a robotaxi is generally visible on the outside to bystanders and other motorists, The Standard notes of the AV’s “fishbowl-like” design.
“While [autonomous vehicles] will likely be monitored to deter passengers having sex or using drugs in them, and to prevent violence, such surveillance may be rapidly overcome, disabled or removed,” the study said. “Private [autonomous vehicles] may also be put to commercial use, as it is just a small leap to imagine Amsterdam’s Red Light District ‘on the move.’”
Convenient meetups, plus the additional benefits for certain fetishes.
But don’t worry, folks, we’ll take this opportunity to put even more surveillance tech in for you to keep you safe and meanwhile, perfectly maintain your privacy. 🤪
At least you did post an excellent meme because of the painful, terrible event.
