What does the RIAA do if you encrypt your music?


To my very vague understanding of how this process works, they come to your house, seize your computer, and charge you for every song on your HD regardless of how you got it.

So, what if you encrypt your music? Can they legally force you to you to hand over your key? In that case, they can only charge you for the songs they caught you downloading.

I know some countries are making new laws regarding encrypted child porn, but how does the U.S. stand on music?

Just curious, and yes, I am too lazy to Google this myself. That's why I love Internet people...

If you are uploading they can access that and thus this is the evidence they use to sue people. Shady at best, but legal as of thus far.
