And as far as I know it isn't. At least these companies certainly comply with lawful warrants. They may be more helpful in cases of their choosing (e.g. CSAM) but are they really expected to refuse when a court orders them to assist with an investigation on the basis that they (to the extent possible for a company) disagree with the law in question?

I wanted to reply to GP with something along these lines, but I could not tell what the GPs comment actually meant, it was too ambiguous.

> It shouldn't be up to Facebook/Google to decide what is a crime, nor in which cases wiretapping should be allowed.

Could mean either:

1. FB/Google should be prevented from deciding what is and is not a crime. They don't set the laws.

Or

2. FB/Google aren't setting the laws, so can't be blamed when complying with those laws.

Maybe it's my sleepiness, but I just cannot decide which of the two statements were intended by GP.
