OpenAI also literally announced that they send data to law enforcement after a judge told them they had to do so.

Every company must comply with lawful warrants and subpoenas.
EDIT: Original parent was "Every company does this."
Not Mullvad. Swedish police showed up looking for some dat, Mullvad didn't even collect what they wanted, police left empty handed.
Yes -- even Mullvad -- which is precisely why they do not collect the data. Because if they did have the data, they would have to give it over, or they could go to prison.

It is true that one cannot produce the data that one does not collect. I'm not sure that is a revelation.

they HAD to? didnt Apple refuse to do this exact thing?
Apple refused to create new software to allow the FBI to brute force an encrypted device. OpenAI just had this info floating around on hard drives.
And then 3 or 4 allies of the US passed laws enabling the government to require companies to develop tools or face prison time.
So they probably have developed the tool, and once developed been secretly compelled to use it.

If you are referring to the incident below, it is different because the government asked Apple to write software to allow access to the device:

If Apple had simply had the text records, they would have had to comply with the government order to provide them.
And Apple did provide all iCloud data they had available.
