I don't see it as giving up rights and freedoms that people have fought for though, if the police have reason to suspect something and they search your whatsapp or something else as a result, is it really that different to them getting a warrant to search your house, or searching someone on the street? It's just a different methods of doing the same thing? I'm not saying that the government should have full access to everything and spy on us without reason, so we'd still have the same privacy rights in that respect.
