The Article: "DOJ: We can force you to decrypt that laptop"

Background: The Department of Justice wants to compel a person to enter (not disclose...just enter) her encryption key into her laptop, which was seized during a legal search, in order to determine if any of the files can be used as evidence against her as part of a fraud investigation.

So, here's the article:

Read it, absorb it, and then comment. I want to hear what you have to say on the matter!

I will share my thoughts in a soon-forthcoming post.
