I hear this so often about WhatsApp - that they are end-to-end encrypted... But I really have no proof that it's true or that I should trust Zuck.
I am sure you can check the messages being communicated, and on the surface you'll confirm to yourself that messages are encrypted. But how do you know there are no weaknesses in the design? How do you know they didnt "flip the switch" to allow a backdoor?
- JustSomeNobody 7y agoWhatsApp does control the clear text on both ends. They can do whatever they want with it.
