It might be cool, but it's also too little and too late. They've already alienated the majority of developers that would be writing apps for this platform.
Find my iPhone will play a tone for 2 minutes at max volume, whether the device is in silent more or not. You can also wipe or put a pass-code on the device remotely. The thief, however, could either disable that feature before you get a chance to use it, or simply turn the device completely off.
Did they also have a warrant to enter the premises and install a now untrusted server back onto a private network without even alerting owners of said network? It sucks to have your stuff seized. It also sucks to have your stuff tampered with.
They can already do this. If the court orders you to decrypt your HD (or do pretty much anything else) and you refuse, the judge can hold you in contempt of court for a varying amount of time depending on the laws in your area. The most extreme length of time I can find for the USA, is the case against Chadwick, imprisoned for 9 years on contempt. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contempt_of_court
I doubt it will be too long before this occurs in regards to decryption, if it hasn't already.
In this case, stolen bits doesn't == lost sale. In this case, stolen bits == sale for the publisher. Microsoft has to pay the publisher of the game with real money that was bought with stolen bits.
Also, congratulations on your ethics, that allows you to rationalize your behavior to this degree.

I wish I had mod points today, this was excellent.

Some people LIKE to stay logged in.

This seems most likely to me too.
Wow, you're all over the place with that post.
Stop using arguments against useless buzzwords!!!
In court? Spying agencies don't need to bother with court. They can get information to the right people to effect the change they desire.

Nice
Oh wow, that's funny, 'cause I did the same thing!
It comes pretty much straight off the cover of "Invasion: UFO Encounters and Alien Beings".
The Fars article ITSELF refers to it as being home-made. Article linked from the summary: http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=8912250816.
