"Surfers Paradise man Rohan Wyllie, 39, pleaded guilty in Southport Magistrates Court on Monday to spying on his flatmates through a network of peepholes and cameras wired throughout his apartment.
However, he escaped a lengthy prison sentence as police were unable to crack an encryption code on his home computer and view the illegal footage. He was instead placed on two years' probation."

There is another thread her about how Windows is easily searched by LEO and Microsoft admits working with LEO in the article above.

So the question becomes - what can we do to make the computer unsearchable without overwritng everything a dozen times?
Is PGP the way to go? I understand the Feds had a lawsuit against PGP a few years ago that they sudedenly dropped, raising the suspicion that either PGP added a back door or the feds could crack it.
This is all a bit over my head tech wise so if any of our experts could break it down very very simply it would be much appreciated.
