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.

@Mer__edith while your point still stands, there was no surveillance involved, the police were tipped off by a neighbor.
@theothersimo @Mer__edith My understanding is that Meta disclosed their messenger conversation to authorities. Proper E2EE doesn't allow for MITM logging/disclosure.
