There isn't a supreme court precedent yet for whether forcing someone to disclose a password is equivalent to compelling testimony. The 11th circuit court of appeals says it is, which should be binding in Florida. They're apparently using a district court ruling that says something else, so there's probably some subtlety at work. Possible subtleties include: * Is requiring someone to enter a password into a computer equivalent to compelling them to disclose it? * Is compelling someone to confirm or deny knowledge of a password forced testimony because it implies the person has control over the data that password protects (assuming that's not established by other evidence). * Is compelling someone to produce the unencrypted contents of a storage device equivalent to compelling them to disclose the password or key?
