If it comes to pass that the department of justice insists on implementation of Exceptional access it would be who’ve the civil libertarians to work towards a better compromise. Hedge your bets.

So, I failed to actually state what I was trying to probe from you:
Why do you view it as unethical to not consider Law Enforcement needs wrt strong end-to-end encryption?

Having exceptional access is important to keeping and improving society. It’s unethical to ignore and fight LE’s ongoing needs regarding such access. E2EE at scale, unchecked, is an extreme viewpoint with trade offs that I consider unethical at best, and fundamentally dangerous at worst.

You haven't explained why, you're just re-asserting what the comment you replied to was expecting you to explain.

I did
Should my sneakers be made more uncomfortable so I can't run away too fast?
Should they be able to remotely disable my car?
Remotely open the blinds to my home's windows?
Should I not be able to install a front door that resists attempts at forced entry?
What's the line where Law Enforcement's wants merit consideration?
