How End-to-End Encryption Works
The gist
End-to-end encryption means that only the sender and receiver can read the messages because they are scrambled in a way that no one else, not even service providers, can unscramble.
Explain like I'm 5
It's like sending a locked box that only you and your friend have the key to; even if someone else gets the box, they can't open it.
Big picture
This is important because it keeps our private conversations safe from hackers, governments, or anyone trying to spy, helping protect our privacy in the digital world.
