voluntarily?

“The governments of the Five Eyes encourage information and communications technology service providers to voluntarily establish lawful access solutions to their products and services that they create or operate in our countries,”

the "voluntarily" word struck me, as it did in about 2009 when US Qwest Comms International CEO Joseph Nacchio did NOT volunteer his customers data to the N.S.A. and was then imprisoned on ‘unrelated’ tax fraud charges - also US Sprint telco fought as well as they could in the secret courts trying, but failing NOT to ‘volunteer’ for the data theft
