Guys the connection is clear if you think about it.
High-net-worth individuals use encrypted messaging apps more than the general population, without doubt.
They also have far more resources and abilities to fight a subpoena. It's all distinctively unfair and highly misleading to normal people; for very little real reason and with great potential for abuse.

Lots of people are convicted in a state court for example of showing up at a bank branch with fake id and trying to cash a check. I gather that would be considered a white-collar crime?
- SpicyLemonZest 2y agoI don't understand the connection between these statistics and your claim that wealthy people don't use insecure messaging apps.
