I guess it depends how much. If they'll net like a billion from not doing E2EE then yeah absolutely. If it's significantly less they'd might still go with E2EE for the PR and not having to comply with shit. It's not like they'd lose all the metadata anyway.
Let me be sure I know what you’re saying. You feel it’s perfectly fine if their encryption is done in such a way that they can read the encrypted information on the server as long as they don’t make a lot of money on it?

Well yeah, I just wanted to know first what you were asking before answering
