      Yes, although I’d argue that it’s a pick your poison thing. You can use a system where the content of your texts aren’t secure, or you can let Meta add even more personal information to the dossier it has on you, your friends and the family dog.

      Sure, but it’s 10x easier to use the age-old open standard that everyone uses for general communication, that let’s be real, the powers that be probably know I’m heading to my buddy’s house before I say the “be there in 10” text. If you need to have more private conversations, there are better means for that.
