Oh gee, forcing companies to leave backdoors for the government might compromise security, everyone. Who'd have thunk it? 🤦

They knew, they were putting backdoors when they needed them.

Now the new administration will take half of the blame in public opinion (that's how this works) and also half of the profits, so they won't investigate too strictly those who've done such things.

But also words don't cost anything. They can afford to say the obvious after the deed has been done.
