    Yes. Threads not posted in for X days are automatically removed from the default viewing mode though. There's probably an option somewhere you can set to see all the threads in here.

    No you don't.

    Now, lets have a serious discussion:
    Does plausible denialbility actually protect you in any form or will it lead to law enforcement simply wanting to always press 2 passwords out of you, even if you do not use a hidden volume/container?

    The problem is quite simple:
    Once you have given them one key to your drive and they do not find the desired evidence nothing stops them from assuming that you have a hidden volume and thusly a 2nd key. I mean they already assumed that you knew the first key ;)


    Taken from wikipedia:
    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Plausible deniability

    TrueCrypt supports a concept called plausible deniability,[15] by allowing a single "hidden volume" to be created within another volume.[16] In addition, the Windows versions of TrueCrypt have the ability to create and run a hidden encrypted operating system whose existence may be denied.[17]

    The TrueCrypt documentation lists many ways in which TrueCrypt's hidden volume deniability features may be compromised (e.g. by third party software which may leak information through temporary files, thumbnails, etc., to unencrypted disks) and possible ways to avoid this.[18] In a paper published in 2008 and focused on the then latest version (v5.1a) and its plausible deniability, a team of security researchers led by Bruce Schneier states that Windows Vista, Microsoft Word, Google Desktop, and others store information on unencrypted disks, which might compromise TrueCrypt's plausible deniability. The study suggested the addition of a hidden operating system functionality; this feature was added in TrueCrypt 6.0. When a hidden operating system is running, TrueCrypt also makes local unencrypted filesystems and non-hidden TrueCrypt volumes read-only to prevent data leaks.[19] The security of TrueCrypt's implementation of this feature was not evaluated because the first version of TrueCrypt with this option had only recently been released.[20]<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    And the story bout someone forced to decrypt here:

    That's fine, have some solitary confinement until you remember.
