If e2ee is what is really keeping you from catching child abusers, then your department is INCOMPETENT and LAZY. Sorry, but all this does is tell me that you are a piece of shit human being(s) that thinks they have to have god-like controls to do your job of jailing actual criminals. or else it's just an excuse to control everything (it is), in which case you are just evil

Fuck these nosey oligarchs
