Theres a multi-billion dollar industry around attacking phone security systems.https://www.fastcompany.com/90307864/u-s-fund-sells-israeli-hacking-firm-nso-group-amid-spy-mystery …

If a magic wand could eliminate zero days and create world wide rule of law that protects individuals free speech then I would prefer warents but this isn’t Harry Potter.

And once key escrow exists you can expect warrants from counties with less protection than the US offers (less being somewhat tongue in cheek here)

Having to bypass security limits government power in a way that procedural safeguards are unlikely to. I'm more worried about mass surveillance and key escrow than zero days.

Yeah, I think it's a strong argument, but Governments hoarding 0day puts everyone at risk, because there's no way to prevent adversaries from discovering vulnerabilities independently. Of course, the Government wants 0days and key escrow, so they can't use that argument!
