I am a privacy advocate, and also am disappointed at how narrow minded some of the arguments of privacy advocates are.
"Banning encrypted chat will just mean the bad people moved to banned platforms". Perhaps, but some bad people have to operate where victims are (Facebook stalkers, eBay cons, ...)
"Police should be forced to just do... actual police work."
It's pretty reasonably for police to want to increase the chances and speed of resolution.
We should champion and defend privacy, in spite of the good reasons to weaken it. There's no need to strawmen.
