It doesn't matter to me tbh. They want to investigate, they can.
I just don't want them to be able to "scale" their investigations like they seem to want so they can get into all encrypted communications without a serious financial hurdle because they'll abuse it.

I didn't. Generalizing like that is unhealthy because it causes you to make some silly assumptions.
