getting agreement of all targets -- gov, com, edu, org -- to say enough is enough, national security has become a catchall for inexcusable invasion of the public realm.
It remembers me when someone proposed that IPv6 encryption should become optional and the proposal was accepted. If we had IPv6 encrypted by now, things would be a little bit different ...
And networks would be harder to debug, unless you happened to work for the comsec utility or the NSA and already had all the decryption keys.
Let me suggestion using IPv7 where encryption is also optional, but at least happens to use the same ecdsa keys you use for your money to encrypt packets if you so desire.

Never pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the barrel, nor try buy a hacker who makes money by the megahash
I absolutely don't see the point that justifies debugging network problems to be a bigger concern than the privacy of everyone in the world. Debugging be damned. We should move to quantum-proof crypto, ECDSA is merely a stopgap.
