Except that's not really the trade-off. There will still be means to secure communication and people who have an incentive to do so will go the extra mile to make sure they won't be spied upon.

But we've opened ~~the~~ another door to spy on the general population, because average Joe won't care. Another big leap towards total control, total surveillance.
