I find this article more complex than it should. For me the logic is more basic:
You want to ban encryption? So no https so no banking online.
They don't want to outright ban encryption. They want to force communication providers to build in backdoors. And not tell you about them.
Banking regulation is going to freak out with this. Tracking this risk which has to be kept hidden can only be fun.
