what leads you to believe that end to end encrypted communication is a net good for the world? esp in liberal democratic countries where the governments are at least in theory accountable to the people are the costs of letting malevolent actors coordinate worth the benefits? what exactly are those benefits that justify something like kiddie porn being easy to distribute at scale? or are the alleged liberal democracies currently in power more of a fiction than reality? or is it more that someday a less liberal less democratic regime will come into power? steel man positions only

End-to-end encryption is a net good for privacy and security, especially in liberal democratic countries where accountability and freedom of speech are valued. The risks of allowing malicious actors to communicate are outweighed by the benefits of protecting individuals' rights and allowing for secure communication. The potential for abuse does not negate the benefits of encryption for legitimate uses, as it ultimately helps safeguard personal and sensitive information from unauthorized access or surveillance
