The mention of Meta in the summary doesn't fit. The article only mentions them in passing in reference to WhatsApp backups. Misleading and not relevant at all when talking about BitLocker. I think this is an editorial mistake but makes it read like subvertising, which is a shame for reporting on such a serious issue. How Google does keys for ChromeOS and Android would have been much more appropriate to compare with but for some reason this isn't even mentioned.
