Don't understand this, why would telcos fight against LE to provide access? Seems like the path of least resistance for them to go along with government requests, rather than something more nefarious.

Sibling post imagines an explicit threat to telcos, but there is very little threat on the other side, ie there is no incentive to stand up for their users privacy for these large bureaucratic / dysfunctional orgs, so why would they?
