hello, i was just wondering ... has anyone considered a time where the governments will declare all encrypted blocks to contain messages about illegal activities. that is to say, if you encrypt your emails/communications, and the government wants to know the contents, or use it against you, they will declare it to contain whatever they want. it will then be up to you to prove it _doesn't_ contain this. how can we defend against this? deniable encryption? pretend the block isn't encrypted at all, but that it is random data, or some other type of content (data for a maths project, etc)? is it forseable that this will happen (in any given country)? i think so. i think it already happens in some forms elsewhere. i.e. illegal money. "prove this money came from valid resources, otherwise it's illegal". i know that happens in australia already. -- mic
