Ledger's key extraction includes other companies.  What happens if those companies want to give up your keys?  Here's what Ledger's CEO says:

Quote
"These companies are not slaves to Ledger.  We just have commercial agreement."

"Great, so now the Department Of Justice calls you and says "We are charging so and so with X, Y and Z.  Get two of your vendors to send us the Bitcoin keys."
-- Harry Sudock, discussing Ledger Recover with Ledger CEO Pascal Gauthier

Anybody who trusts Ledger with their keys, and thus their coins, is an idiot.

An idiot.
