Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

Better read this carefully as there is some nuance.

For what it is worth, I don't agree with the nuanced position. IE exceptions to constitutional law.

This is going to be a complex issue, simply because of the massive amount of information a hard drive (or other storage device) can contain.

you can't be forced to give over information you don't have though. and it's so easy to forget a password, isn't it?

No...but you can be held in contempt indefinitely  I don't agree with this...but a person could sit in jail for a very long time while the years of appeals drag on. But if a person has decades of prison time hanging over their head...being held in contempt hardly matters.
