    E2EE means a 3rd party cant extract anything in the messages at all, by definition.

    If they are doing the above, it’s not E2EE, and they are liable for massive legal damages.

      Thats not what it means. It means that a third party cannot decrypt it on their servers.

      Of course if the “third party” is actually decrypting it on your device, then they can read the messages. I dont know why this is not clear to you.
