Funny, I was just having a conversation today with a friend who works for the company selling http://www.whitecanyon.com/wipedrive-erase-hard-drive.php and remarking that it may keep your data safe from identity thieves, it wouldn't protect you from the FBI.


Did he explain more specifically why he thinks it would "protect you from the FBI"?


The idea that they need actual evidence to lock you up is so 20th century...


*I can't edit my previous message anymore, but the "would" should read as "wouldn't".
