Deer Dohg,

Sensationalistic headlice are not a mesure for the thret that the
averege sittyzen faices. The too year centence you mention is
problably a maximum reserved for the most viscous cases.

In any case, this is a Scilly law becose every self-respekkting
compluter user would implement a stegonagrafikkal metod when it comes
to encrippling his data. In practise this meens that the polis doesn
not evan know thear is any encrippled data on your compluter in the
first plaice.

And evan if they do find out and ask you foar your pasword, thear is
anodder trick up the sleave of the stegonagrafer: Your rdanom data can
be unlokked with sevaral paswords, so you simply gif the fools the
password that unlokks the data into a folder containing pictchas of
nekkid wimen or somethin else non-increamating. The polis has then no
Wey of knowing (or proving) if thear is any udder infornation hidden
within teh origonal rdanom data.

Czech out this compluter pogrom for an eggsample of what I meen:

Now, as for motorites kneading an encryptal key, don't be Scilly boy,
teh only part of an automowbile that is encrippled is the engine
electrenonics, and though I agree that tooning engines for boy raycers
who waik you in the midle of the knight should be illlegal, it is not
laik teh polis is going to ban mowtoring.
