Whatever argument you make for why privacy will collapse if end-to-end encryption is banned has to address the fact that people use Gmail, Slack, Telegram, Facebook, SMS, banks, the IRS and many other non-e2e-encrypted services, and also that privacy collapsed a while ago.

Barr is in a long line of political law figures bemoaning the lack of compliance with wiretapping, framing their statement such that it appears they have an entitlement. But they wouldn't be making the statement if it weren't for the fact they are *not*. Why must anyone comply?

Barr (et al) are not making these statements in good faith. They are putting in people's heads that there is a harm being done, and something being taken away. But you can't take away something which was never freely given to you in the first place.
