I remember using this to rip every DVD I received in the mail from Netflix, and then copying the file to my iPod Video so I could watch it on the bus ride to school. Man have times changed...

Even here, in this incredible high-profile case, they apparently felt confident enough to give it a try.
Imagine now how easy it must be for them to do it to poor, mostly Black defendants who are relying on a public defender, when they don't have a (for better or worse) rabid political wing watching their every move, and when there are no screenshots of their laptop circulating the internet.

> defense's email client might have compressed the video automatically (not how it works) I'm not familiar with all email clients, I mostly use Thunderbird, but almost all messaging clients, social media and similar service do compression when you upload media to them today. It's not super far off that an email client would do the same.
