if you have it running constantly, i dont think that argument can be made

id expect that youd be ordered to retain the data though, if an investigation is being done

Any argument can be made, and accepted by a judge, in a sufficiently corrupt system. Like the parent said, you can't out tech this because logic ceases to be applied to laws. It instead become heads I win, tails you lose.

Yes sure, given a sufficiently corrupt system nothing helps. Even being innocent and revealing everything won't help.

But this stance amounts to giving up. Within the wiggle room a system gives us there are still ways to widen cracks or attach a lever, however small they may be.
