every social media app. I'm sure the Android calculator app is permitted. Funny you bring up Skype because in China they get a special version that enables the CCP to surveil your "private" communications for dissent. I'm sure other communications apps are similar, or plain blocked. For example telegram is banned, although Signal is still allowed for now (maybe it's under the radar).

  For now, e2e encryption is still legal in the US, and US-Skype doesn't have intentional backdoors as far as we know.

    In China end-to-end encryption is also legal, and NSA has backdoors literally everywhere as far as we know.
