The police in pic is Dutch. We have no decryption orders.

But even for muricans encryption helps against (laptop) thieves and annoying family members. And encrypted communication helps against eaves dropping by criminals.

Why wouldnt you encrypt everything?

My shit is only encrypted so in the off chance my laptop, phone, or tablet is stolen, the thief has nothing more than a fancy paperweight. If my stuff was ever suspect and I was required to decrypt it, no problem.

>>
>>54709224
>A single bug in shit like these will fuck up your "encryption"
So basically, what you're saying is, it's impossible to encrypt anything?
You need to keep in mind that the encryption breakers and masters of exploits work at the NSA, not the FBI or your local sheriff's office, and as such won't be involved in your case (unless of course, you are suspected of something worse than cheese pizza).
Even if your encryption scheme has a bug, or even a significant design oversight, local PD probably isn't going to be able to do anything with it.

In many jurisdictions the maximum possible obstruction sentence is equal to the sentence for the crime connected to the obstruction. And in an instance like "breaking the only key to incriminating, encrypted files right as the FBI breaks down your door", it's an easy conviction.

Here's one of the first results on google:

>https://www.ohiobar.org/forpublic/resources/lawyoucanuse/pages/lawyoucanuse-132.aspx

>Q: What is the penalty for obstruction?
>A: Generally, federal obstruction of justice is punishable by up to five years in prison. If the obstruction occurs in connection with the trial of a federal criminal case, the defendant may be sentenced to either five years in prison, or the maximum sentence that could be imposed in the trial in which the obstruction occurred, whichever is greater. For example, if the obstruction occurs in connection with a drug trafficking case carrying a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison, the person who obstructed justice might receive 20 years in prison for obstructing justice. If the person who obstructed justice was also the defendant in the drug trafficking case, the obstruction sentence might be added to the drug trafficking sentence, for a maximum possible sentence of 40 years in prison.

SD cards and USB drives are small as fuck these days. Police searches are thorough, but the possibilities are limitless when you're talking about devices this small. There's a million places you could keep an SD card where it'd never be found.

Also, you could just, you know, stop it with the CP. Police aren't going to raid you for downloading copyright infringing music, and you're not a TV hacker with a database full of classified documents.

your OS password will only refuse regular entry into an account, that's it. your files are all there on the disk, just like any other file
if one were to clear your account password or remove the disk from the machine, your files can be read easily
account passwords only really matter from a security standpoint over a network, where one has no physical access to the machine (and therefore can only access the machine via an account on it)

encryption protects the physical machine, by obfuscating the data in such a way that the password is used to "unscramble" the users' data, and only that specific password will work, so resetting it won't help, nor will removing the disk

oh yea, incase you're wondering why encryption isn't default everywhere, there's a couple good reasons for it
1. performance, encryption/decryption takes resources, and not all data needs to be secure, so encryption "public" data might just be wasteful
2. if you forget the encryption key/password, you're FUCKED (no way to recover your data without that password), and the average user forgets their password routinely, imagine if you encrypt your mum's hdd, and she forgets her password... yea, bad idea

I think this is the perfect example of how to counter nothingtohidefags and people who equate encryption with terrorism. Pop in a live distro and start messing around with their shit and I bet they might change their tune.

If you run a business, even a small one, you need to encrypt anything that handles communication or other people's information. Unless a person who's trusted you with confidential information doesn't mind it being public, you should probably encrypt just for the sake of protecting their information.

I don't really encrypt much, but all user information is always protected to the best of my ability.

They can't throw you in jail for even longer for the things that are encrypted
