Original post

As of May 8, 2026, Instagram has officially removed end-to-end encryption for direct messages (DMs) globally, meaning parent company Meta can access and read the content of your conversations, including text, images, and voice notes. While they likely don't monitor every message, the technical ability to do so now exists. This is a big deal for me because i vent a lot there.
