No lmao. How did you get that from all the talk about radio transmission and encryption?

Closed systems don’t require encryption.

You can actually. It just wouldn’t be encrypted.

Everyone? You mean the 10 people that read this thread?

How does covering up a crime not make it worse when it allows you to get away and commit more crime?

Please tell me banking didnt exist before radio transmission.

It’s definitely not integral. You could just control the connection points. Ie, all your software tools on intranet and wired connection only. Any data can be decrypted.

I think it’s contextual. It is definitely relevant to bring into a criminal case that criminals made attempts to obstruct gathering of evidence in commission of the crime. It’s no different than shredding or burning paper files. Evidence of criminals taking steps to hide the criminal activity is how you prove that a transgression is willful rather than negligent. That matters in cases like murder.

Encryption is also criminal in some contexts, like encrypted radio broadcasts on frequencies for public use.

It definitely belongs as a talking point in a courtroom, imo.

If pizza cost more, at what point does it start actually being a reward equivalent of a bonus?
