Not true. There is the option of scanning on the device.
- yason 3mo agoOwning your device (instead of the manufacturer, a set of unlisted governments, big software corporations, etc.) means no scanning.

- mothballed 3mo agoBanks are probably the most Orwellian surveillance apparatus of all. Almost every time I read an arrest warrant there is a whole section where banking records are used to damn someone. The equivalent level of banking privacy to graphene is roughly walking in to the teller to withdraw a few thousand cash once a month and then paying literally everything with that (or an anonymized crypto).

- EmbarrassedHelp 3mo agoCircumventing encryption with client side scanning is on par with requiring encryption backdoors, and goes against the purpose of having end to end encryption.
- slashdave 3mo ago> on par with requiring encryption backdoors There is no back door if nothing leaves your device > goes against the purpose of having end to end encryption Most people would consider the "purpose" is to avoid 3rd parties listening in
- eimrine 3mo agoIf nothing leaves the device so why to scan it at all? This is what proves your statement about compatibility of scanning and e2ee to be wrong.
