Actually if Giotti found a tape recorder (or keyboard bug) in his house I'm pretty sure he'd do more than blank its bits... *legally*, and despite the obvious implication that someone's investigating something.. Behavior can't be 'contemptous' of court orders if there are none. You can't spoil evidence if the artifacts are not yet identified as evidence. Its not illegal for Condit to toss all the evidence of his fucking-anything-that-moves, because no judge has asked for it.

My reading of the DMCA (and IANAL) is that any system that you use is deemed effective if it works in normal circumstances to protect your content. As such, I believe that the use of rot-13 is a better engineering choice than the use of AES. rot-13 is smaller, faster, less buggy and equally effective, given that the key is stored locally with the content.
