Yes, I know all of this. What do you think meta is doing with all that data?

You mean all that metadata? As far as we know, all messages are e2e encrypted and no one has proven it otherwise.

e2ee means the message text is encrypted. Obviously metadata isnt as you cant hide where you want your message to be delivered to or what time it is sent.
