For all of those saying Facebook was just complying with the law- there is absolutely no reason for Facebook to have access to its users' private information. The company I work for can't do anything with a customer's account unless they give us the password. We can't see anything they have saved there. All of the private stuff they have is private and even if a court ordered us to show it to them, we literally couldn't comply.
We're a small company and we can do it. A company the size of Meta can certainly do it.
You can do it because you're a small company. Get enough attention, and the FBI will force you to decrypt on demand. They've done it before and the supreme court backed them up. Do it over seas and expect your US traffic to get blocked, if they don't raid your offices.
WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram don't have that issue.
Signal yes, WhatsApp yes but not the meta data, telegram only if explicitly set to encrypted otherwise no.
