For what ? Security or anonymity ? Likely yes for the first but no for the second. For example

People get their panties in a twist over this one, but they still operate within the law. What should they have done here, not complied? It’s a court order, from their country.
I think OPs question is still relevant in that context. Does that case reduce their effort towards privacy? I believe the answer is yes.
