>the cost to Apple would be incalculable.
the same statement about "not providing direct access" will get them off easily like it already did for them and Google/FB/etc in case of the rest of personal information.

why would a corporation intentionally do it? Conspiracy of obstruction of [future] justice comes to mind.
