    It's unfortunate that so many tools for privacy etc are used for illegal crap. Then the government starts making it their business and we all lose.

    Very good. Maybe the police will start remembering how they use to catch criminals before the computer era, and stop complaining about how hard is to decrypt a hard disk.

    True, but the police didn't have a central place to look for all the evidence (i.e. the computer), they actually needed to work to find them :)

    When the criminals use new and technical ideas to evade detection the law has to keep up or get left behind.
    Common sense really
