It's bad enough with the amount of private data already scraped legally by websites, without sanctioning the removal of privacy.
Honestly the "for the kids" we know is BS, they say it's for the kids, even if they parade a group of well meaning people around bringing an awareness there's a problem (IMO, honestly double or treble the amount of police or IT entity around the world to penetrate the vile pedo groups) - but instead such actions proposed are almost always for other more powerful interests who see a fraction of the web as a major problem for some perceived idea they lose money to this fraction's activities.
The reality is any group up to no good will simply migrate to a protocol that permits sending a file from a usb or other external source, but such file will be encrypted unlike any previous known encryption. Then the same process as the good work done presently will save the kids, agencies will slowly penetrate such groups, discover the encryption and member contacts ...
At the end of day like many here have already said, it's a slippery slope. Some people are happy to use devices they really don't own the content to do as they please, they put up with google running their phone apps ... when I couldn't clear my cheap android phone's disk space of the junk which left no room for anything else, without having to reset, that was the point I gave up on smart phones - it now exists only to take texts and calls and create a wifi hotspot.
