I remember when you would forget a watch in a closet for 3 years and it would still be running when you took it out again.

This is a truly atrocious battery life for a watch. If it cannot even last the length of a vacation or a camp in some situation, what good is it as a watch? At least with a old fashioned Wind-up watch you can recharge it in seconds anywhere.

It is entirely plausible that it was a honest mistake. But a mistake does not overturn a crime, it does not matter if you had no idea who if anyone owned a song you downloaded or not.

So the question remains, does this corporation think that it deserves to pay 5000 times cost of the items it infringed on, or do they think they should get off scot free?

Except ever encryptor needs a corresponding decryption, or it is simply a deleter.
If you encrypt data, you need to give everyone you want access this decrypter. And this is not taking into account, simply censoring all encrypted data, which has already started.

But even if they do not, they win in every case where it is not between two people who have access to unbreakable encryption techniques and exchanged encryption keys in the real world, AKA they win.

Normally in cases like this it is just whatever the police officer of judge says is offensive/pornography/dangurous.

The problem with strict written definitions is that they would allow the average citizen to actually understand the legal system and know what is and is not legal; While at the same time preventing judges from just handing out whatever rulings they feel like. So of course the would be unacceptable.
