Comment on Hypothetically, if the police seized your electronics (for an unrelated investigation) and found out you have a lot of pirated content, what would happen?

I guess it’s about US law? Idc, here’s German law: As far as I know, pirated content so far hadn’t any relevance in lawsuits based on house seraches. Normally you got problems worse than piracy when they search your house/seize electronics and piracy when discovered so far wasn’t an extra count in lawsuits. But if they really have the urgent need to accuse you of something, they will take whatever they can and only because it so far wasn’t an extra count it doesn’t mean they didn’t reagard it as detail which may has an influence on the verdict.
