Veracrypt drive encryption does not have the same problem, it would be secure even with physical access
Yeah, it's safe because of no TPM usage. You can boot from an encrypted drive, it'll prompt for the key instead of auto loading from vulnerable hardware
Bitlocker supports the same usecase, but everybody wants that automatic boot feature so...
It also lets you store a secondary key on a server and require the computer to be on trusted networks to be able to retrieve it to boot, but I've never ever heard of anybody using that
Pretty sure it uploads the key to microsoft servers when you do that
That's the default, but you can block it in the command line configuration tool
