da ArsTechinica: "Fifth Amendment issues can also arise if acknowledging ownership of a laptop or the existence of relevant documents is itself incriminating. But the police had recorded a phone call between Fricosu and her husband in which she seemed to acknowledge ownership of the laptop and to reference incriminating material on it. Blackburn ruled that barring prosecutors from using the fact that she was able to decrypt the laptop as evidence against her in court would satisfy the Fifth Amendment concerns with compelled disclosure."

ovvero il giudice riconosce il valore del quinto emendamento, ma ha ritenuto che in questo caso non è applicabile, in quanto la donna si è già autoaccusata in una conversazione telefonica col marito

praticamente "se ci hai già detto che c'hai i dati criptati pieni di prove incriminanti, come cacchio fai ad appellarti al quinto emendamento?"
