There's an irony that WhatsApp's new privacy policy is driving a mass exodus to, among other apps, the unencrypted-by-default Telegram. Yes, encryption ≠ privacy, but still.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1349347955975794689 …

Many people don't get the distinction. I've had several friends contact me about dumping WhatsApp, and they're mostly concerned about Facebook "reading all their messages".

I suggest you have a look to one recent post of Durov about Telegram security and choices. I can't argue on a technical level, I can only say his posts make much sens to me, like this one about encryption :pic.twitter.com/xn82ZFuRtd

That chart is bullshit. WTF? Also omits the fact that Telegram can read your messages, and WhatsApp cannot. (I am no fan of Facebook and its privacy approaches). What on earth is that nonsense chart? Telegram hired a PR company or something to generate that???

That is data provided by Apple’s App Store. I haven’t looked at the provenance of that particular chart but there are plenty out there this past week as Apple only just started providing more information on what data the apps collect from users.
