>> why you think CALEA would apply to what Apple announced?

Read what I stated. I said no such thing. I said that CALEA shows that companies can sometimes be forced to be do things they do not want to do, to take actions at the behest of law enforcement that they would not normally do. CALEA would clearly not be applied to apple in this case. It would be some other law/warrant/NSL that would force apple to do something it normally would not do. CALEA stands as proof that such things have long been acceptable under US law.

I understand why you are worried that a more powerful law could be passed by Congress in the future.

I thought this particular conversation was about what Apple can be forced to do by a warrant issued under current law.
