MODERATORS
This is what I can agree with. We could blame Meta for encouraging people to give them data. Messenger does actually have E2EE encryption (apparently) but it is quite hidden and limited in functionality. If they made it the default this wouldn't have been a position they ended up in, and they could have responded to the warrant with "We have no information matching this request."
If they truly encrypted all chats, they would lose their value to them since its unreadable to meta as well.
