An encrypted communication channel specifically doesn’t say that you trust the person at the other end with your secrets. It means that you both agree that the secrets being transferred are safe from 3rd parties.
It might not say that you trust what the person at the other end does but it does indicate that a third-party has vetted the identity of the person at the other end. Do you trust Google? Probably not with everything but you do trust that the certificate that was issued to them proves that they're at the other end of your search bar.
