WhatsApp communities are out!! This is a big deal in organising circles, as basically all groups from senior politicians to the most radical activists run on WhatsApp…

@edsaperia

Seems mad that all these important communications, of which many must involve state secrets, are run and hosted by a for-profit business.

@EmmaDingle @edsaperia that, and the fact that many senior politicians seem to want to break e2e encryption!

@tdg
Yes there's a lot of support for systems that have a "key" for third party access, at least in the UK.

And there's teams out there making them. I've discussed it in detail with them. It's "about the children".

Because of course these things are absolutely totally secure and fine if you require the direction of a judge to use them.

Can't see that being even slightly problematic at all 🤦🏼‍♀️
