    a judge said that, not me. I had a lawyer student do the survey of cases. it varies by jurisdiction. it's unsettled law at best. liberal judges who don't know about yes and no, only shades of gray when it comes to technology.

    in the same way the accuser (in this case the gov't) has to give the accused all that they have against him. that's the way our system works. two-way. in some jurisdictions an officer has to see the offending material that is subsequently encrypted in order to show probable cause. I did not read the whole case to see what they are using as probable cause.

    you misunderstand me completely. I did not say I agreed with that, only that was how it was today. that's why he's in jail. instead of arguing with me you should vote for members who will change the laws. I likely have way more court experience then you'll ever have.

    no, it's narrower than that. under our system you can't utter or sign. but you have to give the other side (in this case the gov't) the unencrypted data.
