Here's a question that's been intriguing me a while. What would be the harms of a ban on end-to-end encryption in mass-market products? People feel safe using Gmail and Telegram routinely for sensitive stuff. What argument do you have for E2E for civilians that really resonates?

Maybe I didn't understand the original question; I didn't see this as asking about "open society" or "more transparency", but about schemes like clipper chip. They are supposed to be "secure comms *except* gov can open it up w/ a warrant," right?

Well, I get what you're saying. But if we want to ignore the finicky details that distinguish between clipper and boss reads your email, it's not really about banning E2E... corp already reads everyone's email.

And a stronger argument is that everyone right now uses Gmail, it's not end-to-end encrypted, and it does a fantastic job of safeguarding these privacy boundaries while allowing warrant access.
