But that could be a very long time if they just apply some form of parallel construction to most cases. They aren't going to burn such information on the first low level criminal/CP target they find. Instead they will wait 5 years and then sweep up a bunch of people involved in some criminal "ring".

And the problem with all these services that provide some kind of E2EE encryption and still have a way to push application updates (or run something in your browser), is that they just slip a version on your machine that sends the password to the feds/whoever when you type it in.

Apple has very publicly refused to do this for law enforcement and there's no evidence they have or ever will
