So because not everything is scanned for known illegal porn, and because those methods aren't completely transparent to the public, you think that justifies government mandated scanning software going through everything everyone says online or posts, looking for something the police or certain private groups think is objectionable (not just illegal), is justified? Because that's what they intend to happen here, and this is why they say they need it.

Thinking that maybe completely unbreakable encryption might be bad for fighting crime is light years away from what this bill is and what its intentions are.

Well, one of them anyway. With 19 committee members and Barr at the helm, there is no telling what will be dreamed up.

FBI: Yes, John? We intercepted a text, where you referred to President Trump as a "fat orange chongus"... we are going to need you to tell us what that means, so we can determine whether or not we should arrest you as an anti-government dissident.
Not yet, and probably not soon after this becomes law, but eventually. This is why we have the 4th Amendment, and why it is so vital that legislation like this doesn't pass.
