that’s not just useless defeatism, but also false. effective end to end encryption exists in multiple forms today.
signal, maybe even with a custom server.
matrix if the server is being ran on trusted hardware.
XMPP too with the right extensions.

Look, in today’s world, you get to choose who spies on you depending on your chosen platform, but spy on you they absolutely will. Wether it’s the Russians, the Chinese or USA. The only way to not get spied on is to not use electronic communications at all.

Look, in today’s world the entire banking sector relies on private communications to operate using the Internet. Why can’t private citizens get the same?

End-to-end encryption should cover you, but anything that can set up man-in-the-middle attacks is poised to defeat that.

Okay, who spies on me when I use e.g. Signal?
