Which would mean police who interview people who had contact with a
suspect, in order to "eliminate them from their enquiries," are either
not grown-ups or are practising something in which they do not
believe.

I was merely making use of hyperbole to challenge the previous
poster's assertion that a government based organisation would be
preferable to the current CA service providers, "especially because of
all which was lately revealed about the NSA."

What I was trying to convey, was my opinion that the revelation of
unpalatable/nefarious behaviour on the part of a government
organisation seems a pretty odd reason to call for services, currently
provided by private-sector CAs, to instead be provided by a government
organisation.
