According to this article, the court can’t seem to understand why the prosecution is going to such lengths to compel production of password. Is they court willfully ignorant or is the article misleading? It seems pretty clear the prosecution was trying to use this case to set a precedent that not producing a password means you stay in jail forever. That the accused is all but convicted for child porn makes it easy, from a PR standpoint, for the prosecution to play hardball. If it was a journalist or a whistleblower, amicus curae brief would be stacked to the rafters.
