You can't be serious? WA got no US-Gov-backdoor? Yeah sure. I obviously can't proove that they have, but i couldn't think of a single reason why Meta and the likes shouldn't neatly cooperate. Customers are sheeple anyway, they could name WA asshat-messenger and they'd still use it. They wouldn't mind nor care. The gov (any gov) would surely show love.

Besides that it's closed source. They say E2E. But can I verify?

So, you're saying prism et al were just fakenews and govs don't listen already? And it's not just about those that really offer true, verifyable E2E?

Not that i would care about meta & the likes, i don't use that shit, but I'd be glad if I'd be wrong.
