The utter audacity of this.

The exemptions would be retroactive, meaning all existing, outstanding requests for information from these offices would be scrapped, including Mr. Ford’s phone logs.

      So maybe I’m very misinformed, but I’m unsure how this is an example of different rules. Care to elaborate? I can generously grant that social pressure/policy/issues don’t provide supports but the legal framework doesn’t to my knowledge favour any one class (aside from how much you want to spend on a legal team), and further, such effects are often taken into consideration by judges (if and when it gets that far).
