If I buy a 2TB SSD which advertises hardware encryption, I can enable

More bullshit from the brain-dead bullshitter.
Linux fully supports SED, or self-encrypting drives:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Self-encrypting_drivesFrom the link:
"The kernel supports OPAL self-encrypting drives via the BLK_SED_OPAL
option."
"sedutil is "an Open Source (GPLv3) effort to make Self Encrypting Drive
technology freely available to everyone."
I don't know anything about these techniques because I don't give a flying
fuck about drive encryption, especially with that gimmicky junk technology
known as SSD.
Providing false information, like this RottenSausage just did, should be
a punishable offense. Perpetrators should be hung up by their thumbs and
whipped with strands of barbed wire.
