I don't want end to end encryption to be banned and tbh, I don't trust Whatsapp's end to end encryption.

There are better alternatives to whatsapp which are open source, you know.

and no, the government is not going to block end to end encryption.

Ok, maybe not remove it completely, but start tampering with it. And i quote the article:

   Because messages are end-to-end encrypted, to comply with the law WhatsApp says it would have break encryption for receivers, as well as “originators”, of messages.
Also Telegram is not encrypted by default, so it's not a better alternative in that sense.

You may dislike facebooks business practices, but they are in the right on this one.
