Pretty crazy to think they got broken up in the late 90s/early 2000s for simply including IE in a fresh Windows install (im probably over simplifying but still). Yet these days they’re pulling this kind of shit

Presumably they maintain full access because they control both ends. The encrypted part would stop others intercepting messages. At least that’s how I’ve always read it
Edit: I’m wrong, end to end does exclude even the app provider from seeing messages. So yeah, either not enabled or they lied
Aren’t the figures on the package meant to be net weight though?
