#WhatsApp shares its metadata with #Meta

They know:

✅ Your location
✅ Your device
✅ Who you're writing
✅ When you write them
✅ How often you write them
✅ Whether they reply

@Tutanota@mastodon.social My current concern is interoperability. I can’t convince colleagues and family to escape from Meta (fortunately I can convince friends, but you can’t force colleagues or cousins to change their habits). I have a terrible impression of social fragmentation behind multiplying new walled gardens. How easy is it to bridge Element with Whatsapp and Telegram? And does it require a mirror account on those platforms?
