The cool thing about technology is it works both ways. If backdoors are mandated it’s only a matter of time until all texts, location history, etc. etc. of those in power become public - we already learned that those people don’t have the strongest opsec to begin with. This will lead to a backlash and an equilibrium of sorts.
Those in power will be allowed to use encryption due to "state security" or something stupid like that. Only us plebeians will be forced to reveal our dirty laundry to the world.
