    That is NOT end to end encryption. That is transport layer encryption. So basically SSL

    End to end is from sender to recipient. No one in the middle should be able to read anything

      It’s like ssl but done at the application layer. Nobody in the middle can read it except it’s nobody in the middle of you and twitter and twitter and the recipient. If you put something on a platform and they have the key they will always be able to read it if they want to.

        are you being dense on purpose? sender and recipient are both users. never twitter.

        i’m not saying that twitter’s messaging is secure. the opposite. what i’m saying is that you statement of “All end to end means is there’s a blocker preventing the network from seeing what you send not twitter” is 100% objectively wrong.
