  The answer seems to be in this PDF: www.ft.dk/samling/20231/almdel/reu/…/2913128.pdf
  
  Apparently Google Translate can’t translate PDFs, but when I copy and paste the text into Google Translate, I get this:
  
  We know that social media and encrypted services are unfortunately largely used to facilitate many forms of crime. There are examples of how criminal gangs use encrypted platforms to recruit very young people to commit serious crimes, including crimes against humanity. This is an expression of cynicism that is almost completely incomprehensible.
  We therefore need to look at how we can eliminate this problem.
  Both in terms of what the services themselves do, but also what we, as authorities, can do. It must not be the case that criminals can hide behind encrypted services that the authorities cannot access.
  Therefore, we, as a government, will also strengthen the police’s capabilities in the area of decryption, of course under appropriate legal guarantees,
  as is also the case today. In addition, the Ministry of Justice’s Criminal Justice Committee has just begun a mandate to look at the challenges that technological developments pose to police investigations, including the use of encrypted messaging services. I also note that steps have been taken within the EU towards stronger regulation of, among other things, digital information services and social media platforms. For example, the European Commission has presented a proposal for a new regulation on rules to prevent and combat the sexual abuse of children. The proposed regulation contains rules on obligations for certain online services to minimize the risk that their services are misused for the sexual abuse of children online, and the services may, if necessary, be required to detect, report, remove and block access to material that depicts child sexual abuse.
  The government has a strong focus on eliminating digital abuse – this is not least true when it comes to sexual abuse of children – and, unlike the opposition, supports the proposed regulation.
  
  so basically a complete failure to answer the question, containing only things we already knew or could guess, not very interesting

    Yeah, it’s also bullshit because criminals are just going to use illegal services.
