Yes, absolutely.
Also consider that criminal organizations that profit from stolen data will become more active (more data lost > more data to sell > more profits > more activity toward compromising data).. which means more organizations for the FBI to investigate.
And there's the potential that victim companies could face prosecution also.. for example, if a company had a minor violation of HIPAA (et al) and was compromised due to a backdoor.. instead of the damage being minor and the company fixing the problem without any patient data being compromised.. instead it becomes a significant incident with real losses of patient data.. potentially opening the company up to prosecution for violation of HIPAA (or other laws).
