SO - The fidelius charm has limited usefulness - and its
protection is essentially the loyalty of the secret keeper. Hardly
worth the complicated spell it is told to be.


I dunno. Extreme torture cannot worm it out of a person, nor
veritaserum, nor blackmail, nor death threats to oneself or ones
loved ones. I think that is pretty useful.


Then how did V get the secret From Pettigrew?


Huh? Pettigrew is the Secret Keeper, dude. He can tell anybody he
wants to.


AS stated above - which is what I was questioning - "Extreme torture cannot worm it out of a person, nor veritaserum, nor blackmail, nor death threats to oneself or ones loved ones." Where did this come from?
It is simply not true.

My point was that V forced Pettigrew to reveal the secret - in fact - in the movie - Pettigrew said that his life was threatened (And while the Movies are not cannon - the scripts still must be approved by JKR - and cannot be directly opposed to what she wants.)
