    Some companies are trying to redefine E2E as HTTPS… I doubt Facebook is that naive though.

    They are probably doing the iMessage trick. The message is encrypted with “your keys”, but you can’t see your keys, and you can’t know if the survaliance key is added to your keys.

      Yeah or that. Even simpler. Still technically not lying. But whoever uses those things: their own fault.
