 I was wondering how many of you actually use usb sticks as "keys" that unlock your computer for use?
This came about with the various talk about Fido and the fact that a company who supplies me now sells a usb stick , like a key for your key ring

Not really as you could use Bitlocker with a USB instead of TPM if you had the right version of Windows. I have a compatible version but don't bother myself.
