- newscracker 8y agoLike lisper said above, you cannot really be certain of anything. Taken to an extreme, you can’t even be certain if the padlock icon on your browser signifying a secure HTTPS connection is truly secure or not. You decide to trust certain things with the assumption that everyone else out there is not out to get you, and that those who’re considered experts in this domain do practice honesty and that there are people who do care more about the rest of the population than their own paychecks. In the case of WhatsApp, we do have public confirmation of the Signal team working with WhatsApp to implement end-to-end encryption.
