> Message contents are authentically and securely transmitted between your devices and those of the people you’re talking to. This is, perhaps, the primary goal of E2EE, and is where much E2EE research and design work is targeted, such as the Signal protocol we use in our products (such as WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram Direct), or the IETF’s Messaging Layer Security protocol, which we helped to design and was recently standardized.
Will Messenger eventually use IETF MLS?
- contact9879 3y agoI imagine somewhere in the planning stages is complying with DSA by adopting MLS and allowing interoperability between WhatsApp and FB/Insta Messenger and other services.
- lxgr 3y agoMessenger/Facebook and Instagram interoperability is apparently being discontinued: https://help.instagram.com/654906392080948 https://help.instagram.com/654906392080948
- contact9879 3y agooh wow, so will E2EE apply to Instagram too? or just Messenger? Edit: nvm just read the last paragraph of the post
