The EFF explains that while trusted execution environments (TEEs) can protect data on cloud servers, they do not provide the same mathematical guarantees as end‑to‑end encryption. Sending message content to a TEE for AI processing creates a privacy risk, and developers should avoid automatic data exfiltration to TEEs.
Why it matters: The article highlights a privacy risk where AI features offload encrypted messages to cloud TEEs, weakening end‑to‑end encryption protections.
