>U.S. government's behavior up to this point indicate it's a power grab for a tool of control The US government wanting to enforce warrants is not a power grab. Crypto is an infringement on the existing, 100% constitutional power of the US government to conduct warranted search and seizure. |

Physical: You usually received notice and could physically spot insertions of fake evidence or mishandling. Only one target.
Digital: They capabilities they ask for can be used invisibly on as many targets as they like. They allow undetectable insertion of forged evidence as well in many cases.
The FBI showed their true colors in Lavabit case where they acknowledged that getting the key or attaching their box could compromise ALL accounts. The FBI's argument? Do it then lie to customers that it didnt happen and their emails are still private. FBI said no harm to business that way. Judge agreed, too.
This is not isolated case. They abuse the other authorities similarly with coercion of affected parties and deception of US public. So, I fight backdoors or similar capabilities to avoid enabling tyrants.
A read-only, auditable search a 3rd party can restrict to just warranted targets woukd be a totally different discussion. They've usually rejected tgat stuff in favor of overreach and subversion. That's telling.
