You could go to prison for refusing to provide password. Here is the story from 2014: A 22-year-old man has been jailed for six months after refusing to provide passwords to his encrypted hard-drives, the Daily Mail reported. He was imprisoned under a section of RIPA, a UK law that was originally pushed as a counter-terrorism measure, but which has now ballooned to cover many different aspects of crime—something that has got civil liberties groups worried. Christopher Wilson is suspected of attempting to break into a law enforcement website and “trolling” the Newcastle Police by fooling them with a prank phone call. However, these are not what he is going to prison for: he's spending time behind bars for not giving up his passwords.
