Great! But, let's remember this is Facebook after all, so... ๐คทโโ๏ธ
...they'll skim the metadata after client-side decryption while on its way to presentation?
Hell, why stop at Metadata? The app can see all the data before encrypting and sending
Does it say between which ends is the encryption? Or who manages the keys?
