I'm not sure I'd trust FBI Director James Comey's advice to allow backdoors when his own damn department got hacked 3 times last year and once already this year revealing 20k employee and agent information on the internet.
Imagine how well protected these keys will be or the information they extract. Geniuses

I like to see how these things unfold. As a pro 2nd amendment supporter, I see this as very similar. Everyone's all for liberty when it affects them, in this case their privacy but turn their head to liberty when it comes to someones right to protect themselves. Putting a backdoor into a smart phone could potentially save another 911 and thousands of lives. If you have nothing to hide, why would you care? It's for the greater good. I'm of course playing devil's advocate here as I believe the federal government's role should be defined on the equivalent of about a half sheet of paper (common defense, common money, roads and other infrastructure, etc.
Don't do the "if you got nothing to hide". I had a background check and a clearance bump from the FBI 2 years ago. I had nothing to hide. My info LEAKED into the internet including my SSN, information, known associates when they were hacked the first time last year. It was very sweet that they wrote a letter saying, oops, sorry, we might give you a year of protection. Thanks!!
It's NOT saving thousands of lives like you say. That's a selling point. Just like the NSA collection has prevented how many terrorist attacks?
You need to stop eating everything up that is being handed to you and think for yourself. America was great because it was the country of freedom. You are saying it shouldn't be, just so you can have a false sense of safety.
Our founding fathers weren't morons. In the good words of Ben Franklin ”Those Who Sacrifice Liberty For Security Deserve Neither.” Clearly they foresaw this BS and supporters of this BS
