I was more interested in your accusations of white noise defeating teh true champions of teh true freedombs, and who these knights of purity might be holding back the inevitable tide of stupidity and reductionism. As a few have pointed out, giving a clause to allow law enforcement to shut off phones is going to lead to it being abused. Will it happen EVERY SINGLE TIME?!!!!111 Of course not. It will, however, happen too often - and especially at times when it would be most useful to have said phone working.
But please, educate us simpletons on the complexities and nuance surrounding the need for the state to legitimately shut off citizens telephones. I'm sure your responses will be enlightening.
