Re: How does this affect TLS?

And how does it affect the Truecrypt/Veracrypt hidden volume?

I've used Truecrypt in the past to protect backup disks, simply because some correspondence may contain financial info. I didn't bother with the hidden volume functionality. But, AIUI, there is no way to prove that one doesn't exist. So if I provide the password and it turns out it's just a load of old backups; and the prosecution has a "sense" that there might be a hidden volume ... ?
