How about we stop expecting "justice" to work in our favour and start forcing it to work in our favour?

If you don't want anybody to be able to take your stuff, don't make it possible for somebody to take your stuff. A piece of paper saying something isn't permitted is not going to stop it happening.

If the piece of paper says I can be forced to tell them my password, they will try to force me... and I will give my password. You can simply put people in jail for not disclosing their password, when the law provides these means.
