I'd like this more than the status quo, but this still leaves the door open for governments to read private messages and leverage social platforms for manipulation. In my mind, and I admit I am not certain this is possible - the only right way for a social network to function is for it to be decentralized and user data controlled by individual users - with optins for any "sharing".
