Pidgin likely won't have a big comeback. The messaging service providers can still tie them to their own proprietary clients. They would only be forced to forward messages between their servers as I understand it. I'm not sure which messenger platforms even need to follow this requirement (e.g. is Signal big enough to have to open up?). Also, there's a few fun open questions like how to uphold end to end encryption or how to exclude spammy messaging services from the network. |

Considering how first world governments are fighting against encryption I assume this is just a benefit to them.
