Behind WhatsApp's E2E encryption is the technology from Signal / Open Whisper Systems, which is developed in the open, the work on WhatsApp being done in partnership with them, see: https://whispersystems.org Of course, it's not totally trustworthy, because in the end it's still a proprietary app, distributed as a binary blob, connecting to proprietary servers, for which you can't have access to the source code and in spite of any well meaning partnerships, they can always push an update that undoes all of that. But you know, at this point that's still better and more trustworthy than other mainstream alternatives. So now I have WhatsApp installed. |
