Well, you'd be breaking a court order (ultimately) if you didn't reveal
passwords or keys, so un the end it's up to the discression of a judge. They
can say "you will go to prison until you reveal the evidence the court
demands." Not really much different from "I'll stop electro-shocking you when
you answer my questions."
