End-to-end encryption matters if your device isn’t actively trying to sabotage your privacy.

If you run Android, Google is guilty of that.

If you run Windows in a non-enterprise environment Microsoft is guilty of that.

If you run iOS or MacOS, Apple is (very likely) guilty of that.

Yup, so I run GrapheneOS without Google at services. It probably doesn’t spy on me, which is nice.
