A lot of these laws are now attempting to apply extra-territorially, e.g. to servers and companies in the US just because people in the UK are connected to the same internet, with punishments meted out if any part of that company does any business in the UK even if it's unrelated.

It might be interesting to go the other way: Get it put into the constitution of a major country that these kind of backdoors are banned world-wide and you can't do business in that country if any part of your enterprise implements them anywhere else.

To begin with this would make it harder to pass laws like this in other places -- domestic companies with international operations would put up stronger opposition because it would compromise their ability to do business elsewhere, and legislators might actually be concerned about that. And then on top of that it would force the companies to choose which subset of the world they want to operate in, allowing people in oppressive countries to pick up uncompromised devices from the places where compromised devices are banned.
