"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 ) _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
