Even encrypted data is not irrelevant. The frequency of messages is relevant, as is how many messages are sent how quickly, the total package size can be revealing if they arent hella padding the data, there is a lot you can learn just from the data. Total obfuscation is ideal.
If you are worried of an adversary that is using numerical analysis on the frequency of messages to somehow undermine you, I’d recommend not using a smartphone or internet connected device. And perhaps medication.
We don’t insult each other here. Take the cheap potshots to Reddit.
>Why worry about nation-state level attacks when you can simply be hit over the head with a mallet until you give up your password?
Yes, that would be the point of obfuscation, as opposed to just encryption. End to end encryption does not prevent the $5 wrench attack, obfuscation does.
