If we allow this we have now given control of all future politicians over to the party in power. If the admin. in power does not like what you are saying or that you are running against them, without encryption it would be trivial for them to leak to the world what type of pornography you like or the fact that you are a closeted homosexual etc. This becomes especially dangerous in countries where your sexual preferences can be a death sentence.

Imagine China's social credit score policy expanded in the US to factor in every text message you send or website you visit. It does not end well.
