Some says that it's better to leave the disk unencrypted because in case of seizure by the police, they can easily attest that the system was only running Tor and nothing else. Some disagrees and says that we should always encrypt to make tampering and (extra-)legal backdoor installation more difficult. I believe the best strategy has never been really determined so far. -- Lunar <lunar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
