Oh fucking great. It's always "think of the children!" but never "think of the amount of bullshit that lack of secure communication would cause".
Encryption is a tool. Same way a knife is. Are you going to ban knives now because someone can jam it right into your spinal cord? Are we gonna have to baby-proof the world because you're the baby?

A new bill could punish web platforms for using end-to-end encryption
Draft amendment adds new rules for policing child abuse
Oh, yeah, also, imagine if criminals were like "oh guess it's illegal I can't do that now" and just happily proceeded to talk publicly about everything they were doing. Do they seriously think this would happen? Even if this was a genuine concern, it arises out of a complete misunderstanding of how the internet works. You can't somehow ban e2e encryption. The said criminals will just use tools that do that illegally.
This doesn't solve any issues. This just puts data of normal people at risk.
