I think there would be an ever better angle to this. If the government can listen to any legally encrypted communication via their backdoors, then by definition any communication they can&#x27;t listen to is illegal and they can focus their intelligence resources people communicating in such way.<p>But honestly, I think it&#x27;ll result in bad guys using the same backdoored crypto that everyone else will be using, relying on steganography and disappearing in the noise - so basically, they&#x27;ll do things in the same way as they always did, since assuming <i>all</i> communications is broken by the government is simply good OPSEC.
