There's no proof of them actually breaking their own encryption.
Further, if that piracy room on matrix is public, it obviously doesn't matter that the communication on it is private. It's still a public place.
Lol, lots of downs with no comments indicating why I'm supposedly wrong about either claim. Amazing what weak bottom feeders some people are.
the matrix room may be public, but when you choose someone to talk to via dm, at that point encryption matters. Of course, you shouldnt really trust that random person from the matrix room, but it being an encrypted chat reduces the risk somewhat.
The amount of incidents I've logged at work and home where messages talking about specific things I've never said aloud or mentioned elsewhere that have resulted in ads is insane. There's no way they don't, unless they read your messages before they encrypt them.
encrypting matrix chats just protects one step of the process, your data may be leaking in various other ways.
