So you run about on the Sabbath and stone to death anyone you find violating the day by working? Because, you know, the law is the law. Here's hoping you get a great price when you sell your daughters into slavery. "The Law". 

Last time I checked the Ten Commandments do not tell to sell anyone in slavery. That is what it means, perversion of law. You know it very well and are good at it.

Not to mention companies building these products will take a big hit as consumers will buy products from other countries with strong encryption.

It will be chaos, if it every happens.

No, that won’t happen. That’s a techie wannabe wet dream.

If Blackberry offered strong encryption and Apple made the encryption weaker, which product will anyone (or at least those who understand implications) buy?

Any privileges and special access good guys have, bad guys have it.

All special access three letter agencies have, local criminals have it, though few of them. These antisocial elements have their members in police and other three letter agencies, don't believe me? Go and speak with anyone who has been with those agencies for sometime.

If bad buys get access to encryption keys, they will not have to stand outside your house to determine if you are on vacation. They will have access to your emails, messages, calendars and everything else online.

Lawyers will be out of job and we will not need court. In legal battles if opposition can find out the evidence or arguments they could go around it and win the case.

Our adversaries and terrorists will have all the information they need. Not to mention companies building these products will take a big hit as consumers will buy products from other countries with strong encryption.

It will be chaos, if it every happens.
