It's not your info that people can get, it's your chats, which makes "info" sound like the understatement of the year. Less so the past year that we've been in the same house at all times, but I generally chat with my SO all day long about everything on my messaging app. It's _not_ okay to have years of that history stored on a Russian app server based in Dubai. A security audit doesn't matter. I'll take for granted that the chats get to the server securely before being stored in plain text forever. Even if I could trust the current company to be 100% altruistic, I can't trust that data to be safe with them forever. Through state-sponsored attacks, company sales, new CEOs, new boards, etc.
