"several court orders from different jurisdictions are required to force us to give up any data"

How can we as users be certain that they wouldn't decrypt our chats anyway, contrary to their stated policy?

As long as they have the technical capacity to decrypt my chats, I wouldn't feel secure on their platform, no matter what they say.

IMO it's a reasonable trade-off for general use as a chat platform with public groups and all, you can use secret chats if you really want to be confident in your privacy. Maybe they could add support for end-to-end encrypted groups though.
