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?

I absolutely agree. But I think the reason the US often holds the line is b/c if a US-based company or even non-US agreed to break encryption for the US government, it’s much harder to argue against breaking it for Brazil or Syria or Russia or China.

Now, the inverse is true too! And Apple’s decision to remove VPNs from the Chinese App Store and to not do e2e encryption on Chinese iCloud accounts (created in china) is VERY bothersome b/c of the slippery slope.
