I was considering buying a mini Mac, but there wasn't a way to encrypt it fully with Veracrypt and in the case of Francis Rawls the feds got pass Apples vault encryption. With the recent iPhone notification storage revelation I don't trust Apple at all.

I couldn’t find any reference to File Vault being cracked in the Rawls case. Source?

Edit: I saw they accessed his Mac but they had his password. File Vault 2 wasn’t bypassed, and afaik has never been cracked.

Why crack it when you have silicon level backdoors?

In T2? Source?

iirc this was a register level exploit. no software in iOS or macOS touched the undisclosed register, but when the right secret key was entered, you got full read/write primitives on the silicon

Notification storage? What’s the story there?
