  • The best Comment - the plausibility denial option
    Its called TrueCrypt!, I personally have not used this feature but there is a plausiblity deniability feature.

    You encrypt one volume but something personal but not too personal in it and then you have a hidden encrypted volume within that one. That why you can plausiblity deny any thing.

    It came up if someone puts a gun to your head or something violence and tries to make you reveal your passphrase.

    Hmm, looks like the next person will be one step ahead.

    Still, its not a matter of the the charges , its a matter of personal freedom. Suppose big-shot political district attorney wants to selective prosecute someone based on their political standing even though they haven't really done anything wrong, ie the US attorneys Controversy or the Mississippi's selective prosection of Paul Minor rather than Trent Lott's brother for "contributing money to a judge" which wasn't even against the law, and how the 5th circuit judge gave the jury technicalities to say ya, you can convict him anyways.

    We need to stand up to personal freedom,

    Wait, you might ask isn't the DOJ all for invading privacy and doing all crazy things. Yes, but What IF

    The DOJ is forced to reveal their secrets about us attorney controversey, halliburton, wiretaps, torture, etc - Maybe they would wish for the immunity then! So Im not suprised they have not commented . In reply to: "DOJ: No comment on forcing encryption passphrases"
