This is the real, human cost of mass surveillance of everyone's private digital communications.
If we actually care about keeping people safe, we need more end-to-end encryption not less.

Also, a reminder for everyone the many ways that Meta and their properties are not to be trusted.
EDIT: Let me add that Mastodon is not encrypted either--including DM's. It is upfront and open about that fact and you should not use social media for any sensitive exchanges.
@rorystarr @Mer__edith yes. Social media is not safe . Texting is not safe either. All companies comply with subpoenas, and the govt doesn't really have limits to asking questions.
This isn't a meta problem, it's a personal agency to your privacy problem, and stupid laws being written for bad purposes problem.
