It isn't that simple. Your dichotomy is false.
The reality is that police and federal law enforcement are able to acquire private information using other means including knocking on doors, physically bugging devices and people, hacking into devices and other ground work.
The law can have the power to discover data, but this power can be separate from compulsion statutes that force large corporations to surveil, store and copy customer data as a default.
What if there was a law that required you as a private citizen to spy on other private citizens? You would have to keep files on people, but you would only need to give them up if a search warrant or other court order was given to you. Wouldn't that be wrong? The only difference in this case is that Apple and Google and whomever else have filed to be incorporated.
Yes law enforcement should be able to access individual's data. No, it doesn't have to come in the form of a compulsory digital surveillance apparatus.
