Honest question because I don’t understand most of the comments on this submission: what’s supposed to be the issue with cooperating with law enforcement?
I personally find mass dragnet-like unsupervised surveillance extremely worrying especially in the US where federal authorities like to abuse gag orders. But that’s not what we are talking about here. In this case we are speaking about judicially supervised data gathering in the context of an ongoing investigation. I have no issue with this as long as there is proper limits and supervisions in place.

- perfecthjrjth 4y agoIt all starts out with "judicially supervised data gathering", a few years later these companies just create a portal for the law enforcement to search for whatever the latter want without any warrants whatsoever.

Depends on the laws they are enforcing. There is a very thin line between law enforcement and outright spying and authoritarian opression.
