Or they don't want to publically reveal that they can just to convict some pedo nigger who they have locked up indefinitely anyway.

>th-they're just pretending!

How come apple haters are incapable of coming up with real arguments?

>The court also noted that the authorities "found [on the Mac Book Pro] one image depicting a pubescent girl in a sexually suggestive position and logs that suggested the user had visited groups with titles common in child exploitation." They also said the man's sister had "reported" that her brother showed her hundreds of pictures and videos of child pornography. All of this, according to the appeals court, meant that the lower court lawfully ordered Rawls to unlock the drives.

>"The Magistrate Judge did not commit a clear or obvious error in his application of the foregone conclusion doctrine," the court ruled. "In this regard, the Magistrate Judge rested his decision rejecting the Fifth Amendment challenge on factual findings that are amply supported by the record."

That's all hearsay and supposition. They are attempting to violate his Constitutional Rights over what, at it's potential worst, would be a thought crime. "Illegal" ones and zeros, give me a fucking break.

We honestly live in a surreal and fucked up word.
This is just one case of the absurdity.
Pretty fucking scary. Glad I'll only be here for another ~60 years

kys pedo.

if he's guilty he deserves whatever he gets. but holding him indefinitely because he won't self incriminate is the bullshit part.

They already have a witness and evidence that he has CP through the hash values of CP he downloaded, that's the problem. He has to prove he did not download the files which he can't unless he unencrypts his shit.

This dude is fucked, at best he will be set free after the court gives up.

>>59512717
I figured he was guilty anyway. Anyone who will sit in jail for 2 years to hide their drives, which for a normal person would be filled with highly embarrassing shit, but not 2 years of your life worth.

I didn't know about the hash value stuff - that changes my perspective. yet, I feel this is something that can be abused on cases that aren't as clear cut as this one.

>>59512717
Let's rephrase that: There is evidence he has CP through his sister's testimony and proof he downloaded CP.

So there is beyond a reasonable doubt he has possession of CP, though I don't know if the laws he's subject to require the data to convict... probably not.

At any rate, he doesn't have to prove anything, he only needs to refute the evidence. And he probably only has more incriminating material on his hard disks since he isn't using it to refute the evidence against him.

In all reality, he is probably going to be jailed for awhile, until his lawyer can appeal on a technicality (for example, evidence obtained without a warrant or misconduct in court proceedings), find evidence that refutes the other evidence, or gets released on parole.

This is the problem with digital privacy today. Pedos are being used to strip the rights of the rest of us because everyone loves to hate pedos. The more barbaric you want to treat them, the more of a "man" you are. Thats why they're always attacked in prison.

This guy has been in jail for two years and hasnt been fucking charged with anything. That is one-million-percent bullshit. It doesnt matter that you think he's guilty, he hasnt even been charged. Everyone needs to look at this as if he was an drug possesor, inside trader, guy caught with illegal tints on his car, etc. and ask yourself if its still OK to imprison someone for two years without even bringing charges. The answer is a big fat greasy American-flag wrapped FUCK NO

This kind of situation must happen literally all the time. Why has this one made it to be such big news?

>>59512911
They definitely should have charged him by now but they have evidence from witnesses and downloads that he probably has CP on the hard drive, which gives probable cause for a search. Why they haven't charged him is the confusing part.

>>59512907
samefag here, sorry, didn't realize he's being held contempt of court. Yeah this is bullshit, see what this guy said: >>59512911

>>59512717
You are innocent until proven guilty. The court has to prove he has the files, not the other way around.

>>59512717

>evidence that he has CP through the hash values of CP he downloaded

This may be a problem once that "SHA-1 collision" meme becomes mainstream.

>>59513020
Wouldn't they be able to us multiple different hash algorithms to prevent this?

>>59512996
If the court can prove he probably has the files they can issue a search warrant. The issue at hand is whether it's like your house (you have to allow police to search it with a proper warrant, even if that means giving them your keys) or whether it should be treated as a self incriminating statement (thus protected by the 5th)

>>59510595
Fuck I remember I have a Veracrypt file with old porn flash games that I literally forgot the password and can't access it anymore

>>59513315
If they can prove the files they can arrest him, in which case they don't need his password. They're not asking for the keys to the house, they're asking him for the murder weapon.
