Just for browsing? Probably none. Although considering the government is corrupted, I'm sure there's some.
But typically just browsing isn't enough to be charged / jailed.

Are you encouraging CP, I hope you get raided...and truecrypt's denial of plausibility has some flaws, and obviously you're retarded for referring hushmail, if you read the TOS, you'd see it says they will give everything over to the feds if need be; honestly if you already didn't know big brother is watching you're not that observant..
I am 100% against CP. The legal system will use CP to push further into abusing our civil liberties is my point here. If you google the Wisconsin CP case, you will see reason's why this is not good. It basically means all future legal cases can refer back to this matter for any other type of legal matter to justify searching of a encrypted HDD.
Ya, you are right about hushmail, my bad
I guess stick to using your own trustworthy encryption protocol before transferring files.

Look for a more recent article... It was originally denied, but was later reversed.

It's the other way about, mate.
4 days ago, just for you.

I dislike google even more now, DuckDuckGo all day.
Aye. I knew the American Government would have something like this, I just didn't recognize it would be on such a large scale. I'm making changes myself to help increase my safety while browsing online. That is uninstalling Google Chrome and using Firefox, or Chromium. As well I'll be adding security plugins, and just general other stuff. Said to see this happen, but DuckDuckGo is a really good search engine, and it doesn't allow sites to track you. So, I highly recommend it.
