Feds crack open Ramona Fricosu’s encrypted laptop without her permission. Feds seized the laptop in 2010 while investigating alleged mortgage fraud. Judge ordered Frico to unlock the laptop herself, but it is now a moot point. Move flies in the face of a decision by the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which said asking for the password for an encrypted hard drive is akin to forcing testimony from a safe. The move ends what has been a long, hard slog, as current legislation has never faced this problem.”]
