that sort of inches at my point. how exactly would this criminal liability work? it would be comprised of two classes of evidence: 1) unassured/untrusted digital evidence that can be fabricated to say anything, leaving no trace of its previous state. (unless digital forensics has advanced well beyond what i know to be possible) 2) personal testimony that can also be fabricated. i suppose what's new here is that in a digital world, bits can be set however one likes with no trace of their previous state, where physical evidence left behind physical manifestations of itself. imagine rootkits that seek not to steal or hide their existence, but rather exist to plant fabricated evidence or hide actual evidence. in today's untrusted computer systems, this is all possible, and terrifying.
