don't they already have it?
Depends on how good the e2e application is written. But yea, since android is still in the middle of data transfer, as well as IO of storage. Meaning both iOS and android can be the man the in the middle software that is tapping off the data even before it's getting encrypted.
Hopefully nobody is reading this from apple or Google, before I give them ideas.

A great example of this is TSA luggage locks. Mandated backdoor, master keys leaked by company that makes them, now anyone can open any TSA approved lock.
I’m not a fan but TSA just cut the locks off previously. Then you’re out the cost of a lock and your bag is open to anybody even without a key. I still use a TSA approved lock but it also has a little indicator on it that turns red if it’s been opened with the TSA key. So at least I know.
Most luggage isn’t even remotely secure anyway unless you travel with hard cases with latches. The zippers on most bags you can separate with a ball point pen in seconds. Then just grab the zipper and pull it to the other side and it’s sealed again.

This isn't a backdoor, the bureau says.
"It isn't a backdoor because we aren't calling it one. We named the backdoor Lawful Access, so it's that, not a backdoor."
It’s not a back door, it’s a side door!

Looks like I'll be happily sticking with grapheneOS until Linux phones get VOLTE working
Good luck with your Graphene OS when they mandate a Clipper Chip into the hardware.

Well that gives the Foss community 6 years to figure out VOLTE

FBI Wants Access To Encrypted iPhone And Android Data—So Does Europe
The biggest threat to encryption yet — what to know.
Forbes (www.forbes.com)
iOS & Android should not hide admin/root access from users (device owners). The same was as desktop systems (Windows/macOS/Linux) never hide it. This will allow users to use their own encryption (LUKS,dm-crypt, AES, VeraCrypt and so on) to store application data.

Don't worry, Google and Apple already know this....but so far we can only hope they will never agree to do something like that.
And if they do, nobody will know about it anyways.

The FBI can go fuck themselves.
People need to start calling this what it is. Backdoor-ing encryption is backdoor-ing national security. It should be considered nothing less than treason to democracy...
But we don't live in democracies. We live in corporate dictatorships masquerading as democracy, so these efforts to destroy our civil liberties make perfect sense.

It's not a back door, it's just a rear entryway
