You can’t be forced to TESTIFY against yourself. Providing evidence (finger prints, DNA, access to your home, data, computers) is all OK as long as they’ve run the right paperwork past a judge.

That’s not what the Fifth Amendment says. “nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself”. I would think that being forced to provide passwords to your accounts would be covered. If the police want evidence, you don’t have to give it to them. They may seize it, but it’s up to them to unlock it.
