This is good news!

By watching which messaging tools are banned in the UK, we will have a canonical list of which messaging tools GCHQ cannot breach.

Thanks David!

It's more likely that it would be a blanket ban even covering applications that are not particularly hardened simply because they don't have any official wiretapping capability.

Far more likely case: Cameron wants to ban "scary" communications, and hasn't talked to GHCQ at all.
