technically it is End to End Encryption, but since there server and the application/client source code is not open source no one knows if Meta secretly backdoored things like key generation, etc.
Anyways, it doesn't really matter, it is more probably that WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger collects data elsewhere, like who do you talk to, when are you checking new messages, devices, IP address, approximate location, statuses, etc since it technically doesn't count as messages so don't need E2EE nor needs protection
So kinda deceptive advertising. The message is probably secret, but Meta knows who you talk to can will handover information when asked by law enforcement.
