To the extent Google can lock you up for life for being inconvenient for their business model, I suppose it could have been innocuous content.

Oh, wait. We’re still a decade away from that particular dystopia, so I’ll guess kiddie porn or actual planning of terrorist attacks.

Wait, if CP and terrorist attacks are posted in the open, then what FBI wants to read in e2ee traffic?

It seems you guess wrong. The Element guy did not mention any illegality, which is what makes me suspicious.
