If I HAD to use one, which one would be better? While Whatsapp is owned by Facebook, they have end to end encryption for the messages, while the metadata is not. However, on Telegram, nothing is end to end encrypted unless you use a secret chat which most regular people are most likely not going to use. I have a feeling Whatsapp would be better but I wanted to hear your thoughts.
I don’t like either but I would use Whatsapp. Because of the encyption reasons you stated. Even if Whatsapps encryption is compromised, Telegram doesn’t even have any.
Telegram does, just not by default
