What?

My only other comment in this post is:

Wow, one article about one guy has got you quoting fascist memes.

You're right, they probably wouldn't bother for the vast majority of people. Also, for the typical computer that isn't security hardened and is also connected to the Internet, you could do the entire attack with a few seconds of access.

This kind of attack is referred to as an evil maid attack, if you want to research tools and methods.

If they're trying to uncover a conspiracy of multiple targets, being able to bug the electronic devices of any of the members will give them a lot of ongoing intelligence and opportunities to infect additional target. Being able to image a device before the target is aware of the investigation (who then alters/deletes the data) is also important in a lot of cases.

Man, these comments.

It's one thing to recognize the irony of this situation.

It's another thing to make racist comments and repeat fascist memes about 'garbage people'. Take that shit somewhere else.

Locked bios doesn’t mean anything if they have physical access to your PC.

They can reset the bios with a jumper, replace your bootloader, forensically image your hard drives and wait for you to boot and unlock your drives so they can grab the keys from memory.

A second trip could install a rootkit/malware because they know your encryption keys.

Trump uses the technique of employing people who are vastly under qualified, because their selfishness in wanting to keep their position requires their loyalty to the guy who saved them from being a low subscriber podcaster or ambulance chasing attorney.

I don't think ABC is going to pick this one up, the satire press seems like a fitting place to report it.

Helldivers 2’s new beta client is 24GB (current client: 150+GB).

So, I’ve at least had a chance to download more hard drive space
