Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Meta announced it is discontinuing end-to-end encryption in Instagram DMs due to low adoption. The feature had only been rolled out to a subset of users and required opting in for each chat individually. While Meta does support end-to-end encryption in WhatsApp, it has been unclear about the progress made towards it in Messenger and other apps.
