Hold on! Kill all HTTPS? Biometric passports? I haven't tried to read the bill, but AFAIK there are no provisions in the bill that attack HTPPS, and given that biometric passports are not a communications technology, I don't see how they could be impacted.

I don't see how the bill impacts email at all; opportunistic SMTP encryption isn't E2E in the first place, and PGP is rarely used in email. And when it is used, it's usually to sign rather than to encrypt.

"End-to-end encryption (E2EE) is a private communication system, only communicating users can participate, no adversary nor eavesdropper can interfere, not the communication system provider, telecom providers, Internet providers, nor malicious actors, only communicating users can access the cryptographic keys needed to converse"

TLS / HTTPS would be included in my definition; the purpose of which is that the two parties are the only ones that can see the traffic.
