Can you trust anything by FB? Signal seems ok. Haven't looked too closely at it though.
Whatsapp adopted Signal's security mechanism last year. https://whispersystems.org/blog/whatsapp-complete/
That's good. But FB ownership is black clouds in the sky...
Well I don't see why FB would put so much work into this and then go back on it later. But if they ever do you can be sure it will be big news.
