No, they shouldn’t.

That’s the end of the argument.

It’s not even a question (outside of clickbait bs by news agencies)

For sure.

E2E should never be broken by the 3rd party enabling the communication.

That would defeat the purpose

As a reminder: Without end-to-end encryption, criminal and terrorist hackers can read your messages … and your legislators’ messages, too.

What if I told you it’s to help stop pedophiles? That’s not really the truth, but what if I told you that?

If the headline is a question, the answer is no

What better headline would you propose in this case?

I don’t think that rule is valid here, the question isn’t there because the answer is definitively “no” and they just want clickbait, it’s there because the actual article is about the question.

(Side note: I’m aware most people here will strongly argue that the answer is no, and I agree, but that is not my point.)
