Meh. The quality of this article is not... amazing.

They cite a 'new study' but do not say who did it, provide a link to it, or otherwise provide a way to validate their scores mean anything.

And then they immediately call a messaging app that's not fully E2E encrypted as 'private'.

I'm pretty sure F to doubt applies here.
