Yep. E2EE is only worth anything if you trust the client on both ends. Meta, being in control of the WhatsApp app (aka the client) thus can access the message contents even if there’s full E2EE, simply by scanning it after decryption.
The word Trust and Meta appearing anywhere visible at the same time should be against the law.
I’ll take my fine.
