Not true. The attack would be against any service provider. The fact that currently they are eyeing whatsup and apple does not mean that they make the distinction between them and signal or telegram.
- huhtenberg 6y agoAgain - WhatsApp, Apple, Telegram and Signal _are_ indeed service providers. Matrix is not.
- gostsamo 6y agoAgain, matrix provide a server, matrix.org. Again, if e2e is outlawed, it would be illegal for them to even work on the code.
- liotier 6y agoIf e2e is outlawed, it would be illegal to operate the matrix.org server (which is one of a universe of federated Matrix servers) - but the code would still be legal. Also, peer-to-peer Matrix is in the works, with working prototypes - the client sort of embeds a server... Enforcing illegal e2e would require going after each user - lots of fun !
