I don't know why you're being sarcastic, but I actually wanted to make sure I don't bring someone on to be unhappy. People over 25 can work more than 40 hours and not get burned out. I feel that you just want to make me…

edit: Wow, I've gotten some negative responses and I'm not sure why. This isn't a "how can I exploit people" question, it's about making sure my interview process doesn't accidentally result in people that will be…
I'm not sure that my response helps build a constructive discussion, but I'd suggest that you at least have the direction reversed (lobbyists propose actions, the "assholes" (as you put it) vote as they're told).

I'm glad you didn't take offense to me making reference to the fallacy as I appreciate our conversation and wasn't sure how else to express that thought. If you haven't done so, check out the source document for the…
No, and thanks for catching that. My understanding is that the prosecution doesn't need the decrypted data to secure a guilty verdict, but as they're entitled to it, they likely want it for secondary benefit.
They're staying within the law -- the defendant being in violation of the law is why an order to comply was filed and why we have access to the court of appeals document. If you don't like the process, that's a…

I think this is just a thing that happens in the movies. Also, check out the source document and let me know if you think someone found guilty of the described acts deserves immunity.
Head's up that the source goes into some detail and is a miserable, sickening read. Per the source (https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/fedsr...), the prosecutors already have a case based on…
