> WhatsApp and Messenger content. (emphasis mine)
Isn't WhatsApp supposed to be end-to-end encrypted making it next to impossible even for developers (Facebook Inc. in this case) to access the transmitted messages' content?
- andrepd 8y agoWhat use is it being end-to-end encrypted if, for all you know, they store the keys, or even decrypt and store all contents on their servers...
- donkeyd 8y agoIt's decrypted on my phone in their app. Theoretically, what stops them from connecting to my phone and reading the decrypted content from there?
- netzone 8y agoWasn't it WhatsApp that sent a key back to Facebook servers? Technically it's end-to-end encrypted, but Facebook could decrypt it if they really wanted to.
- willstrafach 8y agoDo you have a source for this claim? It does not sound correct.
