This discussion reminds me a lot of Bill C-32. It is a digital lock
that secures your data (and therefore needs to be protected in law) or
is it copyright? 

Similarly, is it bad/unethical for Google to record your unencrypted
traffic even when there is no digital lock protecting it? Is it the
encryption that is supposed to secure your data, or is it the
underlying principle?
