A further reason to avoid BitLocker is that it is incredibly easy to give Microsoft the decryption keys to your data if you're not extremely careful. I think the default setting was (and still is?) that Microsoft gets the ability to decrypt your data. I don't understand why anyone would think that is desirable.
