I don't know if meta or telegram cares enough about encryption to lose UK market
Neither Telegram nor Facebook Messenger is E2E encrypted by default. Maybe they'd just disable the option for E2E encryption for both senders and recipients in the UK.
It's going to be terribly difficult to run two different apps on mobile app stores. If Telegram gives access to the UK government to backdoor eavesdrop then that essentially means its available in the entire app. Any app that does this means I'm not using it.
