I find the article quite confusing and unclear to be honest. Are there any other sources?

This is the original NYT article from 2018 https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/18/technology/facebook-priva... "Internal documents show that the social network gave Microsoft, Amazon, Spotify and others far greater access to people’s data than it has disclosed."

Facebook promised E2E at the end of 2023.

Here's the source media is probably using: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/18714274/klein-v-meta-p...

To be honest I found I got much better grasp on the whole debacle by just reading the court papers themselves.

Wait, seriously? Like 4-6 months ago? Like, yesterday in terms of how long they haven't had it? Sheesh, a day doesn't go by that I'm not reminded of how happy I am to have dropped FB so long ago.

They've had it for years, it was just opt-in. More recently they've applied it to everything.
