I figure five eyes already had this information. I think they would have tools to decrypt all communications from any app, by using rooted phones that scan their own memory for common crypto libraries and then extract the keys.

On the initial run it would not know where to look, and the phone would be set up to go through a proxy that blocks all non-decryptable communications, to avoid detection. A profile would be extracted to quickly and silently extract the keys from the phone's memory and subsequently send them to the decrypting proxy.

Then on the second run, the phone would be wiped/reset and the decrypting/blocking proxy would attempt to decrypt the communications that are now extracted from the phone in real-time. The wipe functions to avoid detection (it makes it look like the phone is simply crashing). Perhaps the wipe would include changing some device ID's and the source IP.

Rinse, repeat until only decryptable signals leave the phone.

(Something similar could be done with stubbing the encryption code in memory and then "moving" it to the proxy.)

Either based on virtualization tools or on memory inspection. Or perhaps ring -1 based.

The kind of tool I wish every techy had, so they could easily discover what their apps are really doing.

I've seen footage, I stay noided, I've seen footage, I stay-

Edit: If you know of similar or related tooling, please let me know! I want this software.

I'd think most people are pretty aware of how public the Whatsapp info is.

When you're added to a group with a person in it who's not in your contacts, their messages have the name linked to their account in the corner.
