They do NOT have to "prove" anything. This is reality, not a TV show court room. In reality the justice system has nothing to do with justice. You can and will be held in contempt for not being able to provide a password to decrypt your honeypot.

Use deniable encryption instead.

Energy companies don't have a choice in how their electricity is used.

If quick charging becomes the norm(big if), it'll happen at dealerships first. And yeah, it'll be cheap because they want to sell the cars, not the juice.

Other places will then pop up and likely focus on selling you other crap during your 10-15 min wait. Starbucks would be a natural client for this.

Your comparison of computer languages to human languages isn't a very good one. Human languages tend to have simple rules and concepts, but large vocabularies to memorize. Computer languages have very small vocabularies, but deep rules and concepts.

Those concepts are very portable from language to language. How a variable works, classes, pointers(or references), databases, networking, lists, switches, OO models, etc don't really change. C has pointers, Java has references. Java has hibernate and rails has active record.

Take a good programmer with a long history of work and they can learn new languages pretty much on the fly. Though big shifts(switching to OO or designing things The Rails Way) can take a bit of learning.
