Comment on Google Messages just flicked the switch on end-to-end encryption for all RCS and group chats
GigglyBobble@kbin.social 1 year agoIt’s E2E, E2E isn’t really something you can be sneaky about unless you roll your own encryption and then make claims about it totally being safe bro
With a closed source app? Of course you can. How is anyone supposed to know what keys you use for encryption? Doesn't even need to be a remote one - just the key generation be reproducible by the developer.

If Google can reproduce the key it’s not fully “end to end” unless one of the "end"s is Google.
