    The encryption happens client side, so it’s easy to verify that it’s happening.

    Metadata sent with messages (who you’re talking to, when the message was sent etc) isn’t encrypted.

      There’s still no reason to believe that they don’t have a back door to the message content. It’s closed source, and they’re an evil company whose entire business model is surveillance through lack of privacy. I know where I would put my chips.
