This puzzled me, as in Australia there was a law passed a few years ago that requires companies like Facebook to disclose conversations if requested by the government [2]… I don’t necessarily agree with this law…
However, I am curious if Facebook is actually able to still meet this requirement? … or if there’s a back door to this encryption…
