Not sure if you intended it this way, but it sounds like you believe that it's not a great thing that almost all traffic on the Internet is encrypted today, or that you think it would/will be good to have all computers on the Internet running only "trusted" code.

One can believe it's crazy to run unencrypted traffic while also believing it's crazy not to allow me to run any code I want to connect to the Internet. There is no slippery slope between these two.

The only thing I believe is that the hypothetical future I describe is a non-zero chance possibility. Everything else is the is/ought problem. I'm just talking about how prevailing attitudes change over time.
