I don’t think it’s primarily about the algorithm or “Public Enlightenment and Propaganda” but instead about data and company ownership. Currently the US and EU are far closer allies with each other than with china. Services that are owned/controlled by their countries are therefore prioritized, and competing services from non-ally countries are way more scrutinized.
Try opening it up in Audacity and doing a histogram over frequencies. MP3 files lack a lot beyond the 16000 HZ range, while FLAC files preserve the higher frequencies.
To further expand the community, we should band together and cross post future posts to relevant communities. The recent video about removable batteries is not only interesting but also relevant to a greater discussion of laws on technology, and could in that sense also belong on communities like technology.
The article is almost 70 days old, and Clemens Fruhwirth, one of the creators of LUKS, has responded:
A random keyboard typable character gives you around 6 bits of entropy. 20 of those give you 120 bits of entropy. Even without a KDF, brute-forcing this key space is infeasible with today’s hardware. Even with PBKDF2, a 13-character password should be enough to keep your data secure for your lifetime.[1]
It is much more likely that there was some security failure in the linked case other than PBKDF2. That said, I support the upgrade to Argon2.
[1] In my thesis on LUKS, Chapter 5.3 Passwords from entropy weak sources anticipates the creation of specialized hardware for breaking PBKDF2. The “13 characters should be enough” advice is found on Page 86, Table 5.4, top left cell. It gives a 78-bit recommendation (=13 characters) in the worst-case scenario, which is Moore’s law continues to double the attacker speed every 2 years.
