A little while back I was watching this video of someone playing a newly released game he'd recently imported from Japan on his PSP. (The device and his his desk were in shot, so it wasn't footage ripped from some website.)
...It was removed on the grounds of "copyright infringment" by the developers/publishers.
I mean, seriously? Sorry, but fuck you!
YouTube really needs to grow a spine when it comes to copyright cases and at least determine if something actually requires removing instead of just doing it blindly.
I view the concept of sending someone to prison as torture in order to extract a password; and torture is a violation of basic human rights. (I live in the UK by the way.)
I use TrueCrypt to store my bank details and other important information (passwords, etc.) (Though I have been meaning to getting around to hiding my collection of hentai artwork seeing as "drawings are people too." *rolls eyes*)
That said, with files you can at least specify key files that must be used in conjunction with a password to view the contents of a standard/hidden file partition.
And while I don't want to give anyone ideas on how they could utilize this for nefarious purposes (terrorism, etc.), what's stopping people storing these files on Micro SD cards?; if the Police raid your place you could at least swallow the damn thing. (Though if you did this frequently it would probably put a strain on your wallet...)

...does this mean the end of Hollywood movies and books where people die?
