I don’t see how this bypasses E2EE. How would the EU read an encrypted message to which only the recipient has the key? Do they intend to put malware in every app and device just to get around this?

According to the article, yes, they intend to require all app makers to put malware in their own apps that spies on messages between being typed and being encrypted.

These encryption circumventing laws are always massive security holes and the people pushing them always insist until they're blue in the face that it's fine and totally secure.
