The FBI director is hanging out on a very long limb and sawing away. Even if you mandated in the US that everyone only use HTTP and no encryption everyone will just use it from other countries. Even if one country on earth has one competent programmer implement one secure framework everyone will use it. This is beating a dead horse long after its been cremated.
All you have to do is look at Korean banking to see that Rube Goldberg machines with questionable security practices can easily become standard with the "correct" legal apparatus in place.
