I can see that going both ways.

The feds know that Apple (for example) are fully lawyered up, and that they need all their legally required paperwork with it's "i"s dotted and "t"s crossed before Apple will even look at their request for your data. While we know they _will_ hand over legally required data when they can and the paperwork is OKed by their legal department, they also very publicly go head to head with law enforcement when those requests are legally questionable or technically impossible.

I suspect an overly broad probable cause warrant to seize all the electronic devices in your house is gonna be much easier to slip past an leo friendly judge and whatever legal representation you can muster up when they dawn-raid you - than "slipping one past" Apple's legal team.

Having said that, if you've got the feds interested in your digital comms, you probably want to be getting your security advice from a much more private and trustworthy source than randoms on Hackernews...

Also, if the feds raide your home you will know that your data was compromised. Apple won/can't tell you..
