There could be an alternate ending to the whole Elon Musk Twitter takeover saga . Another Musk-helmed social media platform could be on the horizon if he’s allowed to back out of his bid to purchase Twitter. On Tuesday, among a series of reply tweets to questions about Musk’s Twitter bid and his recent selling of Tesla stock, one particular reply tweet of his seemed to indicate that the Tesla CEO might very well just start his own social media platform if the Twitter deal falls through: https://t.co/bOUOejO16Y — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 10, 2022 Now, beyond his pithy “X.com” tweet, we don’t know much more than that about this possible social media platform.

Meta has announced it will be testing default end-to-end encryption on Facebook Messenger . The social media company said in a press release on Thursday that testing has already begun “between some people” earlier this week, and that it will be working to make the privacy feature default for all messages and calls in 2023. If you’re part of the test group, your frequent chats will be automatically end-to-end encrypted, thereby rendering end-to-end encryption non-optional. This means that any conversation between you and a friend or family member can’t be accessed by Meta or anyone else. The only way Meta will see your messages is if you report them to the company if they threaten your safety in any way. Meta is also testing out secure storage on Android and iOS. This feature helps you back up your encrypted chats in the event your phone gets lost, or you want to restore your message history on a new device that supports end-to-end encryption. These encrypted backups can be … [Read more...] about Facebook Messenger finally tests default end-to-end encryption | Digital Trends
