Realistically if its private no one will know about it anyway. IIRC the UK goes with private is also illegal and the realistic reason for that is so that if its leaked and you have it they don't need to prove that it was you who leaked it and "i was hacked though!" isn't a valid defence.

    I know what you mean, not saying its right but that is how it apparently works here. Law often struggles when you go down what if scenarios with technology.

    Technically I am not allowed to cut back some nettles on a path because I don't have the land owners permission. In reality no one gives a shit and people may appreciate not getting stung when walking down the path.

    just to add to this tho, i think your example would not be a crime, but like a misdemeanor. Which gets treated differently (a small fine and its not documented basically, not jail and a criminal record)

    atleast that is how it is in my country, i would be suprised if it is much different in the uk tho

    Pretty sure a misdemeanor is an American specific thing. I know I have never heard about it other than from Americans.

    There are a lot of problems with that stance and I do not have the energy to point them all out, but here is the main one I see.

    If you say something in private is illegal, how do you enforce it? Many harmful drugs are illegal, for example, so we justify invasions of privacy with searches of a suspect because the harm of the drugs is so great we are okay with violating people like that.

    When you say digital content is illegal in private it justifies searching digital content for enforcement. But the trouble with this is it is digital content and programs can be used to search it...continuously. This sort of search needs to scan EVERYTHING of yours in private. Once you have that, they can add more search criteria and you won't even know it's happening.

    You have no idea how bad this can get. I hope that you don't find out.
