> Has WhatsApp ever had a security leak that we know about? I don't know of any, but I distrust anything Meta/FB/MZ does, out of principle. I have more trust in iMessage, but it's incredibly tightly tied to Apple's devices (as far as I can tell, part of its security architecture relies on the hardware/SEP). Signal (as a non-profit org) could have been a neutral third party everyone could feel safe to trust, but they've lost my confidence when they introduced support for cryptocurrencies - I can no longer trust their motives. It also does not offer any choice over some security/usability trade-offs (like syncing your chat history to a new device); I understand this is critical for e.g. whistleblowers, but a deal-breaker for many of the rest of us.
