Its called end to end encryption
I know. I am worried that the UK government could force devs to hand over the private keys to those end-to-end encryption apps under this new law.
I would hope no corporation would actually obey something so insane.
A good messaging application won't have keys they can hand over. It should be Foss and have the keys stored by the user
