This is the one that bothers me the most to be honest, how is this possible ?
Couldn't one just claim they don't remember constantly, as it seems there is no 'probable cause' or even any traditional 'evidence'.
- gambiting 3y agoLike many other things in world - it's not a binary yes or no. It's about what the judge or jury will believe. If you say you don't remember your password but they pull up logs and show that you have just used that password 3 hours earlier, then jury will almost certainly find you guilty, even if yes, there is absolutely no way to prove what the objective "truth" is.
