What happens when you get stopped and searched in the UK (probable cause isn't a factor here) and they find a "special encryption" phone?

I hate to break the bad news, but people break laws all the time, including in the UK. People will just manage the risk exactly like any other law they choose to ignore.

Criminals still carry blades as weapons in the UK, despite it being a strict liability crime and at risk of stop and search.
