It's definitely not Google style.
But I hope Matrix will get more promotion in result.
There are people here who work on mobile applications. If they depend on Google and Apple delivering their app to their clients, it's still unacceptable that they can potentially put you out of business, just like that. I already saw a couple of people here that claimed it happened to them too. Without any reason, without the ability to appeal, nothing.
what is the actual state of matrix e2ee today? (or is that question silly because it depends what the individual matrix clients chooses to implement).
I'm extremely excited about having a federated e2ee messenger, however as a "Lawful-Intercept" realist, I don't have a lot of hope that it will not get forced to comply with current EU regulation proposals, that prevents Matrix from fulfilling its promise as fully e2ee. (e.g. the future that we're heading to in the EU is the same as 5/9-eye countries: there will be a "legal" way of encryption and another one that is illegal, all depending if access can be given to 3rd parties / LE...)
[1] (Sad) state of E2EE in Matrix clients (from 2018): https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/9avyen/sad_state_o...
With Matrix you have the choice to use whatever server or client you like, which makes it difficult to censor.
To put it in terms of your logic: it that were case, it means Signal is not secure.
It seems this always requires the /sarcasm tag. =)
