And for a trifecta of terrible(yes it's still on their docket):
Killing encryption ALONE would kill the the internet. You suspect illegal activity, go to a judge and get a warrant. That's the way it works if you suspect someone is hiding illicit goods in their garage, that's the way it should work online. Frankly, the Black Hats are probably drooling at this proposal. It would make things so much easier for them.
This is going to hug over your economy hard; partially because no company EVER would keep their deepest, darkest secrets without encryption, and no sane COUNTRY would want to do business with the US or its government without some promise of protecting their data.
This sounds like Google heard the dumb thing Twitter was doing and thought it would be okay if they just made it less dumb.
It'll still result in stuff getting deleted off the internet, though.

When did Elon buy Google?

It's how they got most of those zeroes in the first place, after all. Or how their families got them, in Musk's case.
In the latest attempt to kill end-to-end encryption:

Senate bill crafted with DEA targets end-to-end encryption, requires online companies to report drug activity
A bill requiring social media companies, encrypted communications providers and other online services to report drug activity on their platforms to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has advanced to the Senate floor.
If e2e encrypt goes, the internet goes. It will become useless for any purpose involving finance or personal data.
But that would mean letting society actually progress, and they can't possibly have that.
And economy: as people will move not only their infrastructure, but take necessary steps to insure their data doesn't pass through an american run server at all. Much in the same way people are already doing for china.
