I'd rather say that I'm very impressed with the extent to which the FBI went to compromise these people from a technical standpoint. What they did is scary, yes. But I'm still very satisfied knowing that the FBI will put in not only so much manpower, but also technical and strategic effort to achieve its goals.

That sounds like you're glad that the FBI is technically competent at bypassing the very constitutional protections that each of its agents is sworn to protect.

  Which constitutional protections did they bypass exactly? The Federal Court has found the fourth amendment does not protect a home computer[1]. One might disagree with that, but claiming the FBI is "bypassing the very constitutional protections that each of its agents is sworn to protect" seems quite emotive given that an actual court found the exact opposite.
