Important announcement: end-to-end encryption concerns USERS, and not APPLICATIONS. The ends are the AGENTS, not the CODE they run.
If your communication application processes your messages on behalf of someone other than you or your recipient, then it's NOT #E2EE.
I'm surprised how many people seem to accept that applications exchange messages rather than people. Nope. If the application censors you or leaks contents to someone else, then your communication is not E2EE by definition.
@dcz I've never been comfortable with E2EE solutions that are not encrypted *before they leave the computer*.
I'd much rather use GPG, and encrypt something on my machine, before it ever gets onto the net. Solutions like Protonmail (using a browser), while they are better than nothing, I just don't trust them.
