^ this one. ding ding ding.
Paraphrasing old Brucie on this:
Why would an attacker spend time trying to get through your steel-plated triple-deadbolted front door, when they can throw a rock through your kitchen window and crawl in?

All it takes are some unchallengeable secret court orders, and off to your nearest cloud/service provider to suck down all your datas.

It's worse than just that. Starting my gripe:
I wanted to buy a $2.80 rubber dust cap (for the usb and hdmi ports) on the side of my nikon d3100. That is one of the very few "user replaceable" parts that "Nikon Parts" website sells. The shipping on the $2.80 rubber cap? Try more than 10 dollars. I think it was 12 bucks or something to ship to Texas. Now that is a straight rip-off, but when I checked it seems that the "Nikon Parts" online store isn't really Nikon but being run by somebody else. So seems I cant even get parts from Nikon.
