Since the Feds have the HDs now in the US Dotcom will have to hope
that the VA court respects the law of NZ. I'm not holding my breath on that.
Also the longer Dotcom drags out the extradition proceedings, the longer
the Feds have to work on decrypting the drive. [No, I don't know what
encryption was used, nor how long that would take to crack with
the FBI budget] Another question of course is supposing they don't
crack it, and just quietly destroy it, where are the backups?

Unfortunately most hard disks have known structures. This makes it easy to find
decryption keys. I wouldn't be surprised if they have already figured out a few
of them. Stick a few high end graphics cards in a server box and you have a box
capable of brute force breaking most encryption.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
