@jonsnow kan ik bevestigen en toch wil ik graag van US-jurisdictie af.

@jonsnow "All DMs will be decrypted once it reaches Meta's servers." after we have read them fed the AI and shared them with the Trumpista security apparatus.

@jonsnow Literally none of Meta's messaging platforms are end to end encrypted. They use the term for marketing hype. Meta's business is surveillence and selling user data.
