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 take issue with "people feel safe". A responsible institution handling sensitive information (bank, law firm, hospital) absolutely should not be using Gmail.

I agree with you, but I'm not talking about how things should be.

For the most part, these institutions *don't* use Gmail. (Particularly not eg. high end law firms.) Which should tell us something.

You would be amazed at what high-end law firms do! I am happy to concede this point, however, because it's not really important to the debate. Even the most careful law firms and hospitals don't use E2E messaging.
