I would think that sensitive communications would be encrypted tho
You don't need to know what the message is about when you know where it comes from and where it's going. A lot of security breaches come from that king of knowledge.
Aka metadata.
Indeed, and then they decrypt it if you're a Ukranian boat.
It's not that easy as just checking a box that says "enable decryption". Not saying they can't decrypt traffic, but it's not trivial if you don't have the private keys.
