> being asked to comply with this for a small company is fairly small

This may be true for now, but I have seen far too many laws beeing used in other contexts than what they were intended for.

For now it maybe used in cases of 'terrorism'. In three years your products will get compromised because the state wants to catch a drug dealer. In 8 years, they also want to catch regular burglars, and in 10 years these laws may be used against you, because you forgot to mention a $100 bill on your tax declaration...
