I believe it’s a much more complex topic than that.

I think, most likely, you overestimated the consideration of the majority. I may be wrong, though. Most opinion I read or heard about are more emotional drived.

Signal is offering the most accessible e2ee messenger right now.

Doesn't matter. In the reach of EU, some law about Chat Control. If they make this into law, no provider within the EU will have a choice in this matter.

And the majority thinks this way for what reason?

Because "Fake News" and missinformation has been framded as a danger for our societies for a long time.

Telegram has been banned in Russia, as far as I heared.

If you don't care for the guy, you will nearly certainly lose privat messaging in Europe. Maybe, it's even too late by now.

 

Does anyone has an idea what happend to the "Anonymous Remailer".

Some years ago, there was an active scene of remailers in order to post anonym into the UseNet or send mails without a sender.

As far as I know, there have even been technical solutions to problems like finding out whether someone is writing something based on traffic. I remember that there were even concepts for a kind of mailing list that worked in principle while respecting privacy.

Has this been developed further?

Yeah, I wouldn’t be too confident in Facebook’s implementation, and I certainly don’t believe that their interests are aligned with their users’.

I'm quite sure, they arn't. This statement doesn't mean that I think they have bad intention or something. It's just, at least for me, obivious that the interest of the users and these of the companies are highly different. This is also the case with other companies and their customers.

Having access to the data means that they will be required by law to provide that data to governments in various circumstances.

A more paranoid person than myself would suspect that any big enough gouverment world simply force the companies to collect and share data.

The metadata problem is common to a lot of platforms.

From the viewpoint of the cooperations, this is a good deal. Enough privacy to keep people on the plattform and still enough data for advertisment.
