This is huge news and I’m so very grateful for the EU court.
Between that and ensuring phones can be charged with USB-C, support RCS messaging, this is wonderful.
And these benefits translate to those everywhere in the world.
Why does EU rock so hard?
Won’t make much of a different as long as Facebook gets their metadata

I wouldn’t trust Meta with one bit of my data, encrypted or not, under any circumstances whatsoever. It’s naive to the point of comedy to think megacorps can be trusted. Any future fines they might incur as a result of breaking the law will be so pathetically insignificant as to effectively amount to no fine at all. There is zero meaningful accountability, and consequently zero incentive for them to follow the rules.
