You are way off. For reference, here's what you asked

Do you believe that Meta, if given the opportunity, would choose personal privacy over making money?

And my answer

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.
