[SailfishDevel] Right to silence

Here we go again, 

seems like you really need to do this outpour on the sailfish devel list, so could you PLEASE at least contain it to one thread so the ones that don't wish to get distracted can successfully ignore the thread?

This can be the right to avoid self-incrimination or the right to remain silent when questioned. The right usually includes the provision that adverse comments or inferences cannot be made by the judge or jury regarding the refusal by a defendant to answer questions before or during a trial, hearing or any other legal proceeding. This right constitutes only a small part of the defendant's rights as a whole.

Moreover I clearly stated that I will reply on mailing list after meeting which I've did as promised. I just didn't feel that I will have equal chances to express myself, when Jolla employees where dominating on it.
