There are a few YouTube videos about this. Basically, they demonstrate

they would have access not only to the computer in its current state but
to an encyclopedia of all of your activity. If I recall correctly, the
data is not encrypted as they suggest, but rather uses some very
accessible database file. It is a privacy and security nightmare in its
current form.

That's why they push Bitlocker for Pro/enterprise. I guess Home users get
to take their chances.
