   By "Crack", they mean not to actually crack any encryption, but to   
   have the providers of "encrypted messaging" decrypt their encryption   
   of your E-mails, posts, etc.   
      
   Again, this article shows to NEVER trust a provider with the   
   encryption of your messaging. Always do your own encryption.   
      
   "The Irish government is planning to bolster its police's ability to   
   intercept communications, including encrypted messages, and provide a   
   legal basis for spyware use."   
      
   "In a similar way to how certain other governments want to compel   
   encrypted messaging services to unscramble packets of interest,   
   Ireland's announcement also failed to explain exactly how it plans to   
   do this."
