    Around 99% of all chat reports sent to police in Europe come from a single US corporation: Meta. US tech giants are acting as private auxiliary police forces—without any effective European oversight.

    Thats very interesting. Assuming that whatsapp is actually e2ee that means instagram, facebook and threads account for 99% of all chat reports. That means all dms on there have been getting scanned. Sounds like people should leave those platforms.
