There is never under any circumstances in any modern country a situation where you are allowed to "win" a fight against Constitutional and democratically created laws. Asking "what is the point in having a password if the state can just ask you for it" is like asking "what is the point in having a gun if the state can punish me for killing people with it at will?" Encryption is there to protect against thieves, hackers, and other unlawful surveillance. Using encryption isn't ever going to make you impervious to the legal discovery process. |

no it's not, bad analogy. in the US the state can't put you in jail for not giving a password (remaining silent).
