Maybe most people on HN don't consider that a hard question? At the very least, I consider it an ill-stated question. I think something a little more transparent would be better: at what point must a company forfeit all knowledge to the government?

And when you put it that way, it really doesn't seem like a hard question to answer. At least, not for me.

What would your answer be?

At what point do you think a company should be required to forfeit all knowledge to the government?

Let me guess, you're not trolling, you're "genuinely curious".
