end-to-end encryption

When I see a politician bloviate on banning end-to-end-encryption I wonder how much of the sum total of human knowledge has been destroyed (hat tip to Thomas Bracken 'Czar' Reed of Maine). Encryption, to be effective, has to be end-to-end as any point were there is plain text will allow someone to see the details which may be very sensitive.
