I'm wondering how they deal with encrypted data, does anyone know ?
I have previously denied the IRS access to search my laptop as they wouldn't specify what they where looking for. They seized it using some VAT laws that allows them random searches without a court order / judge or warrant... Now they've been bugging me for more than a year to come pickup all my shit...

Bottom line is that this is no new thing (this was in 2006) and this was in Europe so it's not just an American thing.
