You don't even have to talk to the police in the first place. If they ask about an encrypted drive, just don't answer
Sure mate, you try that next time you're going through immigration.
Will do. I wouldn't be committing any other crimes so would have literally nothing to worry about.
Better yet, use a hidden partition.
That'd be my suggestion. I can't imagine that the average airport security goon is going to check the reported size of the drive against the hardware specs as part of a normal inspection.
AFAIK that information isn't even visible with veracrypt, correct me if I'm wrong though
Dont think it is, aslong as the container is not mounted
A hidden partition is entirely different proposition as you have plausible deniability, and you're right - if you really had to pass immigration with it this is the way to do it.
That said, it's just not worth it for a tv series or what not. Just delete it and download it again.
I'd rather not have some cuntface look through my personal data, thanks
