Especially with Americans new found willingness to accept overreaching law enforcement measures. So long as one of the right trigger words (terrorism, children) is used, the average purchaser of certificates won't blink at the idea that law enforcement completely subverted the chain of trust that enables their customers to believe they are dealing with who it says on the certificate.

Court order? Your argument might make sense if it was law enforcement making the request. But do you really think companies should ignore court orders?

  Can a court order you to commit a fraud?

    Yes. Courts can also order you to destroy property, breach (most types of) confidences, alienate people from money in their accounts, etc etc, and lie about doing all of the above.

  There's a difference between fighting court orders and ignoring court orders.
