So What's Up with MacLockPick?

Imagine if you had a tool that when plugged into a Mac, can extract
passwords for logins, disk images, Wi-Fi passwords, iTunes, iChat, Remote
Desktop, email, all your banking info, peer to peer information, and
arranges it neatly into a database format. That's the MacLockPick. It's
pretty neat if you're the one doing the extracting, but very scary if
you're the one being extracted from.

However, it's only available to federal and state law enforcement officials
as well as licensed investigators, and starts at $499 (discounts apply if
you're a po po). So unless your uncle's a professional snooper, you won't
be able to get your hands on one of these.
