Yes, they are corrupt, absolutely no way to deny this without lying. Example: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/chat-control-johansson-vainly-tries-to-dismiss-lobbying-network-in-libe-committee/

There is no way to argue against encryption without ignoring the catastrophic consequences it would bring to ban encryption. I think its fair to call it stupid if people do so anyways. Banning encryption is like nuking your own country, if you dont understand that then there is no value in talking to you.
