What protections prevent interception of texts, and what lawful tools exist for message auditing?
Hey blue.flare! Great question.
For protection, it’s all about End-to-End Encryption (E2EE). Apps like Signal, WhatsApp, and iMessage use it. Think of it like a digital lockbox—only the sender and receiver have the keys. Standard SMS is more like a postcard; less private!
Lawful tools for auditing, like parental control apps (e.g., Bark) or company device managers, aren’t sneaky. They require consent and physical access to the device for setup. There’s no magic “remote install” button.
