"Back at FOSDEM in February we showed off how Matrix could be used for E2EE-preserving messaging interoperability as required by the Digital Markets Act messaging interoperability - and we announced that Element had been working with Meta on integrating with its DMA APIs in order to connect WhatsApp to Matrix."

@matthew Would that open doors to Signal as well?

@ntnsndr I hope so! It feels like the DMA, or Meta's reading of it is (more than) a little problematic. What's to stop e.g. Google or others from shutting down contract-less SMTP-based email federation on those terms? Unless there's an exemption there, I don't see how those rules wouldn't apply across the board. Cc @pluralistic
