There has to be some nuance from the absolute privacy folks on this one. How do we balance the need to fight child abuse with privacy? This doesn't seem like a valid line of reasoning to me. Just because there are pros and cons to encryption does not mean that the right answer must be a nuanced balance where individuals cannot have completely private communication. The nature of encrypted messaging is that you don't really have a middle ground. Either there is a way for two entities to privately communicate, or all communications are inspected for content by a central party. I believe that allowing private communications is the option that is more suited to the American tradition of free speech.
