Completely undermining the entire point of encryption. Why would anyone trust this corp after this? Not that they deserved trust in the first place. Way to push more customers away Microslop.

Most (US) companies don’t consider the US government to be a significant risk to their business, partly because they’re already subject to it.
They also commonly believe that Microsoft can secure these keys more effectively than they could do so in-house. And they’re probably right.
Now, it’s an entirely different story for any companies not subject to US law.
