No, that's not true—Meta has not ended end-to-end encryption; in fact, it has expanded it across apps like WhatsApp and Messenger.

Messenger still supports end-to-end encryption for eligible personal chats.

This rumor is only half true: Meta officially discontinued end to end encryption E2EE only for Instagram DMs as of May 2026 due to low adoption, while WhatsApp and Messenger still maintain this security feature.
