Okay, but who prevents me to exchanging a private key irl and sending encrypted messages over Whatsapp?

Whatsapp would turn off that feature for EU countries the same day the law goes through
They mean doing their own encryption prior to sending the message to whatsapp with a one time pad - a one time pad is secure - but the answer would be "a boatload of inconvenience"
Is there some way to automate that via a third party app?
