RIPA is finally being used to force people to hand over encryption keys...

omg wtf...

"In the event that there was doubt that a suspect did not possess a key, he 
said, it was up to the prosecution to demonstrate beyond a reasonable doubt 
that they could know the passphrase"



ever fat finger a password? ever forgot a password? ( I got a zip archive I 
protected and cant unlock due to the fact I forgot the passphrase )

looks like prosecuters and judges will now be ASSUMING guilt or innocence 
based on whaty they THINK MIGHT be true. ( if you created the passphrase you 
must know it )
