While they can't actually get rid of encryption, they can definitely make it so that actual secure cryptography is not the default in the devices and sites that the majority of purple use. If Chrome, Amazon, Android and iPhone don't support strong encryption (at rest and/or in transit), then for almost all situations encryption will be weak.

This is particularly problematic when there are network effects (e.g. messaging, email, standards acceptance), because anything that becomes the standard is an immediate target.
