I think perhaps you misunderstand the relationship between the lawmaking process and the operation of government agencies.
Funny you say that because I work in the field if you think gathering will stop progressing or won't become increasingly aggressive, pinch yourself.

I wonder how committed Apple really is to the statement on ReformGovernmentSurveillance.com. While they have signed the open letter, Apple is not among the companies with their name or logo on the masthead of that web page. Is Apple signaling that it disagrees with one or more of the principles laid out on the web page, but not detailed in the letter? I hope AI will ask Apple for an explanation.
