Surprised honestly how many people either have it already or at least know it. Obviously might not work if you ever talk to a person 1-1, but starting a group chat only takes 2 people 😉
Not an issue if one uses VPN for HTTPS traffic like in the blog post.
But I guess similarly one should be mindful about the VPN traffic too. The cloud provider would technically be able to sniff unencrypted traffic - like HTTP.
