    Do you believe that Meta, if given the opportunity, would choose personal privacy over making money? It’s an easy yes, or no question to answer.

          I need to know what your question means to answer it. What money are we talking about?

            I’m not Meta, so I can’t give you a detailed breakdown of how they use the data they collect to make money. So, let’s assume by money I just mean money from their many sources. It’s a pretty easy question with only one answer.

              But you are talking about what sort of money, something they’d get from not using E2EE?

                  I guess it depends how much. If they’ll net like a billion from not doing E2EE then yeah absolutely. If it’s significantly less they’d might still go with E2EE for the PR and not having to comply with shit. It’s not like they’d lose all the metadata anyway.

                    Let me be sure I know what you’re saying. You feel it’s perfectly fine if their encryption is done in such a way that they can read the encrypted information on the server as long as they don’t make a lot of money on it?
