Isn’t e2ee messaging intended to encrypt data transfer between devices, not provide global security?
No that’d be server side encryption, something any major company has been doing for years now. E2ee is where even if the server turns out to malicious, it wouldn’t matter as the server has no knowledge of data anyways, only users.
but the key is stored/recoverable by Apple.
Right so its not e2ee, its just server side encryption. A lot of companies, including apple with it’s imessage, just use the term e2ee incorrectly as a buzzword nowadays for marketing
