I'm not sure what you're saying there, can you expand on this? Are you saying a fake search warrant or fake court order is no more secure than a fake EDR? My point is that the EDR system (if we can even call it a system) appears designed to avoid any and all scrutiny, verification or legal process. "We need this in a hurry, lives are on the line, we haven't got time to get a court order" doesn't exactly invite the recipient to understand that they have every right to say no. EDRs are basically backdooring an otherwise fairly well-understood system with checks and balances.
