The ironic part is they might already have access to this. Apple’s Advanced Data Protection is convergent encryption which also lets them retain all metadata and filenames and hashes so its possible this is already available to them and they are using this for a different or distraction-related purpose

Every serious person in law enforcement, who doesn’t have an agenda, acknowledges that the old fashioned policing methods make all of this redundant.
It just takes longer (and so costs money), which is what this is about.
These people would destroy the security of the world’s protocols just to save a few quid. It’s deplorable.
