    I’m confused. Even WA has full encryptrion nowadays, which means they themselves don’t know what’s in the messages. How is this even supposed to work?

      Closed source software from a notoriously corrupt company and it’s encryption keys are not ever in users’ control. You should assume apps like that are already backdoored. Matrix/XMPP/Briar/SimpleX is probably the way to go. Either that or manage your own encryption methods, but take into account other info such as your contacts list can also be used against you.

      Can anyone confirm this? I thought it was e2e but meta sill could read content since they had permission to monitor the app on the device including contents.
