    How would a third party client guarantee e2e encryption with iMessage?

    And by what mechanism was that company enabling that bridge? Did that mechanism store iCloud credentials? Did it encrypt the drives the users iCloud data could have been downloaded to? Did they have access to iMessages in clear text before forwarding them?

      The entire web is built on standardized e2e encryption schemes fought for by techie nerds so that we don’t have these problems there.
