@messenger This is a truly shocking decision. Meta values its competitive position more highly than it does children. Which people with expertise in children's health and welfare told you this was a good idea?

@messenger Please please please help me recover lost chats with my deceased best friend due to end-to-end encryption implementation. These conversations are all I have left of him and were the only thing holding me together after his passing. 💔

Security and privacy require a careful balance. Regulatory proposals like the EU’s “Chat Control” signal a shift in digital policy. They introduce on-device scanning of messages and images before encryption. How much privacy are we willing to give up for security? cc byte

X DROPS CHAT: FULLY ENCRYPTED MESSAGING BUILT RIGHT IN! X just launched "Chat," a brand-new secure messaging system baked into the app, promising the world's tightest privacy with end-to-end encryption that even X can't crack. Key perks? Encrypted chats and file sharing, plus you can edit, delete, or vanish messages anytime. Block sneaky screenshots and get pinged if someone tries, 0 ads, 0 tracking, straight-up total privacy. It's rolling out now on iOS and web (Android's up next), merging your old DMs into one slick inbox. Voice memos are coming back soon, and they're asking for more feature wishes, standalone app vibes? Folks are buzzing about that. This builds on Elon's tease of P2P encryption "similar to Bitcoin" for bulletproof security without ad hooks, ditching the WhatsApp/Signal drama for something truly unreadable. Users are hyped, calling it better than Signal, though some skeptics question the PIN setup and gov access. Still, if privacy's your jam, this could nuke the competition and turn X into the ultimate everything app. Source: Engineering, Chat

🚨 Europe’s Next Step: Digital ID To Access The Internet? Experts warn we’re getting dangerously close to a world where you’ll need a digital ID to go online. With proposals to scan private messages and weaken encryption, critics say this isn’t about safety; it’s about building the infrastructure for mass surveillance and control. This connects directly to our previous post on mandatory age checks and digital ID verification online. The same policies that claim to “protect users” could also normalize identity tracking across the entire internet. Read the previous post here:
