Well...this is exactly how power corrupts, right? If you have a power, you're bound to use it.
Give a general a jet plane, and he will sooner or later bomb some people with it.
Give a politician the power to classify information, and sooner or later he will use it to cover up some shady stuff he did.
Give a cop the power to scan a phone, and sooner or later he will scan every phone he encounters.
This is exactly why the government should not get a "backdoor" into E2E encrypted chat: today it will be used to prevent a terrorist attack, tomorrow to send your mom to a gulag for thoughtcrime.
