Messenger closes with the encryption to other chat apps that have this ability already. WhatsApp and Signal walk leading. That make standard use of the stronger encryption.
In the Telegram, and Allo, a new messaging service of Google, is optional. iMessage, the messaging service from Apple, also offers end-to-end encryption, though it is for experts from the outside may not be able to check how sturdy it is. With the other apps, with the exception of Telegram, that is the case, because they make use of a so-called open standard.
The function is fine for users, but police and governments are less happy with it. They claim that this makes it more difficult for criminals and terrorists, because they are conversations between suspects can not view.
