The CLOUD Act is a mechanism for legal authorities to compel companies to produce data they hold, even if it is stored on servers outside the US. I don't think it's fair to characterise that as a backdoor.

The US can use the front door and nobody can stop them. That's the dividend of being a superpower. It's the good old gunboat diplomacy for the 21st century. What are local potentates going to do against America?
