Default Computer seizure (was DIY privacy and security, the rights of the individual against the intrusive state)

Steve Walker posted

What had happened was that he and another company had been recommending
a third company for private pensions, but unknown to them, the third
company was involved in a kick-back deal with some other financial
advice companies and so they were suspected of being part of it.

It is as easy as that to be accused and have vital computers and data
taken away.


And, as we know, it's even easier where the alleged data is
intrinsically illegal just to possess.
