Do you want privacy, or do you want back doors into everything?

Usually, the backdoor on apply to "regular" citizens, while the governments and military get exemptions from it.

If the balance of power wasnt so asymmetrical I would be inclined to emphasize with the position that E2EE is a bit of an over-correction. We would be remiss to ignore the practical concerns about nefarious actors using it to organize.

HOWEVER, we would ALSO be remiss to ignore the imbalance of power it would cause if ONLY the governments are privy to secrecy...
