I'm not familiar with these cases, but maybe they made the correct
choice by not revealing their passwords and taking the small jail
sentence. Perhaps they would have been in a lot more trouble if they'd
given up access? This is what encryption gives you, choice. If you
don't encrypt, you don't get to choose.
