There is another reason its not really effective to try to ban or even limit e2e encryption. If you're intentions are nefarious, and you have a group that you need to communicate with, you will just implement the encryption yourself. Or buy burner phones etc.
Honestly, with my cynical hat on, I feel this is actually being pushed by the marketing and advertisement lobbyists, such as Facebook, google and others, in order to data mine for advertisers into your communications..
Maybe my tinfoil hat is a little bit too big, but I really use encrypted communications so that at least there is one dialogue that's not being warped into advertisements for me.
I genuinely fear for future generations privacy, in all regards. It's worrying and it really does deserve more attention. It's so crazy to my younger nieces and nephews that when I was their age, I didn't have a phone. It blows their minds. And I'm only in my 30's.
