Minnesota court takes dim view of encryption | CNET News.com

] We find that evidence of appellant's Internet use and the
] existence of an encryption program on his computer was at
] least somewhat relevant to the state's case against him,"
] Judge R.A. Randall wrote in an opinion dated May 3.

The fact that PGP was present on a persons computer was considered relevent in this case. The mere fact that PGP was there makes it more likely that this person was involved in crime.

It's about as relevant as leaving dead bodies in lawn chairs in your back yard as opposed to burying them. It may indicate that he was the one who buried the evidence as he had the key.

He never even used PGP. He just had a copy. Its about as relevant as having a copy of microsoft word.
