I don't think the police have to divulge their methods if there's a possibility that it would jeopardize ongoing investigations. I think there's some consideration for that in the US and possibly in Japan. Or maybe the trial was conducted in closed court, and that's why nothing got out.

I was under the impression that this was what stopped them tricking people into believing they'd broken Winny's anonymity for very long. >Your action was as if to steal bread in great quantity, and without eating any yourself, redistribute it to others for free. Somehow copyright cases inspire the most flawed analogies. Am I wrong in thinking that the police have to make their methods of evidence collection public when a case goes to trial?
