Not so fast now. That isn't the only question. Suppose for sake of argument that getting unencrypted data from Google or Facebook was actually a successful method to foil some nonzero number of those plots. The question remains whether that was the only or least intrusive way to stop them. And unless we have the details, we can't make that determination.
