Because the gov.t would surely never entrap folks they suspect of
hiding something gov wants, e.g. by issuing a subpoena and later
seizing computer equipment and backups?

But more logically, a rational gov that actually wanted the data
would obtain a seizure warrant and seize the equipment without
forenotice, and thus pre-emptive (and at that moment in time, lawful)
deletion of records, would therefore have been the most logical
course.
