Europol, a tax funded law enforcement body, is publicly lobbying exactly this.

Europol calls privacy-enhancing technologies, or PETS, the tools of criminals:

“PETs are used by criminal actors for secure communication, anonymisation, and protection of data. Criminal networks utilise various PETs, including end-to-end encrypted messaging apps, encrypted phones, and virtual private networks (VPNs), to communicate securely and anonymously. “

"For this reason, lawful access to electronic evidence has become one of the most critical issues for European law enforcement"
