 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026. Unlike WhatsApp, Instagram never offered encryption to all users or as a default; only select users in certain regions could opt in on a per-chat basis. A Meta spokesperson explained that the decision comes due to low adoption. “Very few people were opting in to end-to-end encrypted messaging in DMs, so we’re removing this option from Instagram in the coming months,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who wants to keep messaging with end-to-end encryption can easily do that on WhatsApp.” Meta’s messaging strategy has shifted multiple times over the years.

 Grammys: Janelle Monáe brings down the house with Michael Jackson moonwalk


Actress, singer, songwriter, and rapper Janelle Monáe can now add “Michael Jacksonimpersonator” to her résumé.

The 10-time Grammy nominee brought down the house with her cover of M.J.’s “Don’t Stop ’til You Get Enough,” complete with a moonwalk, during the ceremony’s Quincy Jones tribute on Sunday night. Monáe performed while wearing a Jackson-esque sparkly tuxedo, bedazzled socks, and sunglasses. She danced with her microphone for much of the routine, and then pushed it aside as she hot-stepped effortlessly around the stage.


At one point, Monáe removed her black jacket (which Taylor Swift caught and proceeded to wear) and revealed an “I [heart] QJ” tank top in honor of the iconic record producer who died on Nov. 3, 2024 at age 91. He won a whopping 28 Grammy Awards throughout his career, including most recently in the Best Music Film category for the short “Quincy” in 2018.


On the red carpet, Monáe told Entertainment Tonight that Jones “gave us the blueprint when it comes to album-making and music-making. The reason why I’m as eclectic as I am, and I focus on my albums, is because of what he gave us. … Tonight, I’m just here to say thank you.” She added that she was going to “let the force move” her when it came to her performance.
