Because it prevents automated mass monitoring and filtering of content in general. Someone has to know there is this group, be allowed to join it, monitor the content, etc. It's much more costly.

- gtirloni 8y agoWell, that's exactly the point I've tried to make when people say law enforcement can't happen in WhatsApp because e2e supposedly prevents that: they can disable it at any time for certain targets and it'd be hard to detect. But I'm usually downvoted when I say that because, apparently, people trust this faceless corporation a lot.
