Apple is going to find out the hard way that 'fast development/aquisition' means something entirely different to Apple than it does to the military. Apple probably thinks that half a year is a long time, while the military thinks that five/ten years is quite average.

Apple is mistaken if it thinks it's going to play a role above level 'Restricted'. Well, unless it's pilots. But pilots get whatever they want anyway.

Maybe the backdoor isn't so much the crypto format itself - it's in the password to decrypt. After all - these companies have a thing for you sharing information 'in the cloud', right? What's to stop them from simply posting your password somewhere central - for recovery purposes on your (and apparently, other people's) behalf? I reckon 90% of users would find it super-convenient!
