I ask because I think the rhetoric on the "allow exceptional access to law enforcement" side of the debate is far better, and I'm curious what that nerd herd can bring to bear here rhetorically. (Remember on substance I am a true believer, don't burn me on sharpened stake etc.)

I think "who exactly do you mean by 'law enforcement'" is one of the stronger families of arguments in this debate. That is a good point.
