Not really. Just because they reverse engineered the protocol does not mean it is insecure.

I guess we know too little to say much about that topic.

Well if it’s all handled by Apple I can assume that there is a reasonable amount of security in the way the message is stored.

If a third party gets involved, then I don’t know if the message is read, copied, or stored insecurely by them.

I reall hope apples does not store or can even read the data. Otherwise it would be a really bad messaging protocol (privacy and security wise).
