Criminals WILL have private ways - as long as it's mathematically feasible, which it is. All regulation only affects people other than those who wish to protect their conversations.

To illustrate why I think banning widespread privacy is bad, I'd like to quote the US' Miranda Warning. "Anything you say can be used against you in court." And to add: "If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him." Therefore - we shouldn't give the system all of the lines.
