You mean American companies like Apple? Whether you trust them or not they've certainly brought it up. Though they might not label the spying indiscriminate; maybe still 'criminate.
Or are Chinese companies doing some interesting walling-off?

I've had to explain to clients on numerous occasions why I enabled TLS between things in the same data center. Security requires layers and just because the data is on a network you own doesn't mean nobody can get in.
I get it why somebody would argue this before but things like letsencrypt make it easy to manage the certificates for your internal hosts. I guess it gets more complex if you have your apps in containers that need their certificates managed etc. Even that shouldn't be this big a deal to make sure renewal is automated with some scripting or even managed properly with a backend CA like r509 ... Also the argument for performance no longer counts when the sales argument could be "we guarantee you e2e encrypted services etc" ...
Also Data Engineering jobs become a lot more complicated when suddenly certain data-points are no longer available for visualization on "BI-dashboards" consumed by wann-be tech-savvy CxO's, so that too may be a factor.
The "te with l" tip was for the original "'criminate" and not very clear.
