Yeah, the cost would be corporate profits, and the benefit would be privacy for average people. Given those tradeoffs, I'm not surprised that those benefiting from corporate profits say "it's complicated", and then choose the course that results in more profits for them (while harming the general public and national security). I'm not surprised, but not happy about it either. But this is turning into more of a political rant so I'll end here.
