This isn't so much about businesses that allow message exchange. Memespeech allows users to add their own encryption on top of whatever messages that a particular email provider, chat app or social network already allows. So even with laws like EARN IT, there would be no way for a company like Facebook to prevent people from bringing their own encryption. There are more robust solutions like GPG, but Memespeech was designed to be easy for people who already have established trust with the party they're communicating with (and could exchange a decryption password off-channel).

Encryption doesn't matter if we eventually get to the point that Apple can be forced to run a key-logger on a user's iPhone (warrant or not). People are lazy and won't use an extra app to "encrypt" something before copy/pasting it into FB and then the other uses has to copy/paste back to the Memespeech app; all just to send :D. Additionally, let's say encryption is banned and this is the "workaround". They just ban this app in the AppStore. No way users are building github repos and side-loading.
