Imagine for a second that for some reason, the cops have a warrant for your premises and they see you have a Liberty safe and want access to it. You don't give them the code to the safe. You are remaining silent as you were advised. The cops are otherwise unable to open the safe and so they call Liberty and say that they have a warrant and would Liberty give them the code? Liberty gives them the code? Do you buy another product from Liberty?
They did this, as a matter of policy, for January 6 suspect. I don't care one way or the other about the particular situation and this thread isn't about January 6. January 6 just happens to be the event behind the warrant. Liberty was not served with a warrant. There was simply a warrant for the suspect's stuff and since there was a warrant, Liberty had no problem providing access to their customer's safe.
"Liberty Safe, the manufacturer, clarified that it had been contacted by the FBI in late August to provide a safe's access code for a person it was investigating, with the agency giving Liberty Safe proof of a valid property search warrant of this person. The manufacturer said its policy is only to provide access codes to law enforcement if there is a warrant that grants law enforcement access to a person's property."

When you buy a product from a security company, you don't expect that that company will compromise your security. If Liberty was served with the warrant, I would understand 100%, but Liberty wasn't served with a warrant, but was simply made aware that there was a warrant for a person (and property) who owned one of their safes and compromised that person's security as a result.
