“The FBI asks for so much, because it is banking that some companies won’t know the law and will disclose more than they have to. … The FBI is preying on small companies who don’t have the resources to hire national security law experts,” he argued.
This is something police officers routinely do, to people with vastly less resources than companies like Yahoo. It is sanctioned because all the "bad guys" must be caught. Why is it a problem when the FBI does it?
