Grandma doesn't need security to share recipes. Her problem is more likely using 2FA, rather than the fact her 2FA uses SMS.

The average Joe is the same. Some, even weak security, is good enough.

C-level employees, probably want better than Telegram. Any state officials using Telegram probably need firing.

It's all relative. Hell, there's an argument for actively using plaintext too, when you WANT the opponent to know what your saying.

Privacy for the sake of privacy just fuels the arms race. I don't care who knows my shopping list. But I don't do company work on public WiFi.
