your computer will get seized in 24 hrs. you know this beforehand. what do you do in that amount of time to save your ass?
hard mode:you cant destroy your harddisk physically
I have nothing to hide desu
A full drive wipe only takes a couple hours

No pirated music or movies?
>>52960949

>>52960867
I'm innocent, justice will prevail.

Replace the drive with another. Hide the original somewhere miles away.

Fill all 6 of my hard drives with ultra rare pepes as far as the forensic retrieval tools can see.
Destroy the thumb drive that's used to decrypt my boot sector.
Enjoy you useless hunk of jumbled up data
clear my browser history and copy my music. this means i just overwrote the old data.
now i delete the copies and chill out. just dont log in again online.

This is one of those bait threads we have every few months where you want someone to say to wipe the hard drive using some form of a zero pass or a random pass, then insisting you "know a guy" or "know a governmental agency" that can somehow recover the data loss using magic hard drive dust
>>52960867
Literally nothing.
My meme and document folder are in separate memory sticks
I only keep music files in my HDD. I don't keep stolen movies/other media contents.
Come to think of it I can't remember when was the last time I watched a movie in my PC.

'Straya. why
I got nothing remotely illegal besides ~200GB of pirated movies.
And I have full disk encryption
If I lived in the land of the free I would probably have to go as far as writing zeroes to the drive.
But because I don't and piracy for "personal use" is perfectly legal I could literally hand it to them and even provide the password if they forced me (which they can't)

Not him but you're deluded if you think western europe is in any way better.
2 years ago my buddy and I were in belgium.
In brussels he had his phone stolen by some muzzie piece of shit.
We went to the police in the FUCKING capital city of this country.
And after a long time we had to go to the Chief Officer's computer because NONE of the "regular" computer were recent enough to have a fucking USB port.
And the chief officer's PC was running XP.

It would do absolutely no harm to the data on your hard drive.
Oh wait you're a /v/edditor with absolutely no fucking clue what he's talking about.
Please continue
dban the shit out of it
I can't even think of anything I'd need to back up
maybe my 4chan folder
>>52960867
dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/sda
Nothing
>>52963156
Do you mean /dev/urandom? /dev/random wouldn't fill up a harddrive.
Option #1: wipe the hard drive, like with a cloth
Option #2: call Hillary
>>52963107
wait nevermind my 4chan folder contains cp
>>52960867
I just turn off my computer.
It's all full-disk encrypted with Serpent.
I can then just destroy the keyfile.
>>52963204
It would, but it'd be terribly slow
>>52962156
I'm from Belgium and Brussels is known to be a complete shithole by any standard.
Put a post-it note on it.
"Will only release the encryption key if you clone the drive and return it promptly. A blank the same size as the original is in the cupboard marked 'supplies' if required."
>>52960867
a computer with a missing harddrive raises further questions
have a 100% clean backup harddrive that you can slap into your PC, thus allowing you to hide the "dirty" one without raising suspicion.
>>52962804

Not my problem.
>>52963328
It's the seat of power of the entire fucking Yurop.
>>52963395
How does the resolution of the stream play any matter in that regard?
Do you even have any fucking clue what you're talking about?
Or are you just shilling your pleb consumer garbage you love so much?
>>52963306
Why did you chose Serpent as the cipher?
>>52960867
The government doesn't care about pirated movies.
>>52962156

Look into the Marc Dutroux case to see how incredibly corrupt and/or incompetent they are. Pretty much the entire Belgian government is a joke.

speaking of SSDs, how would you go about getting rid of the data, especially when only technical means may be employed (imagine you cannot physically touch the drive)
>>52960867
Well then I'll just have to destroy it spiritually!
Go rent locker at the local bowling alley lock it up. Or possible microwave it. Was always an easy way to destroy dvdr. 15sec in microwave makes cds and dvds pretty. :)

Joke, god.
Seriously, easy. Just buy an overpowered magnet and repeatedly run it over the hard drive.
Even then though, can be reformatted and even repaired.
Fuck it. Poor oil over my computer, throw it outside, make a homemade flamethrower and kill the useless cunt.
>>52963375
Need fake logs though. No logs except a long time ago and day b4 seizure would raise questions.

It doesn't damage the disks(in theory) and should only erase the data.

Use strong magnets, 100% wipe
Nothing.
failing to understand the constraints by suggesting physical destruction (including magnets, microwaving, etc...) doesn't make you look clever. it makes you look like a retard.
we all know about these approaches. the thought experiment was supposed to be about destroying data without doing these things.
>>52960969
Same law, but the fucking Jew is pushing my corrupted government to change the law to a much harsher one, that is the government is allowed to sue any one who used (no matter down/upload, or even showing one in a forum) copyrighted material, no matter the copyright holder wants to sue the user or not.
Zero it 7 times.

It just tells the HDD / SDD that it can be overwritten.

On ext3/4 it does. rm on this FS is zeroing your file.

>>52963395

I only have free as in freedom software and media on my dm-crypt+LUKS encrypted hdd.
If there was something on it I would overwrite everything with random
