Nah, go ahead and trust Facebook. I'm sure they have your interests at heart.

I don't trust Facebook either, but it's hard to believe until you have hard evidence.

Also, with the way encryption in applications is implemented, it's kind of hard for Meta to know what the plaintext contents of your messages are. The UK wouldn't even ask for this in the first place if WhatsApp used some shoddy implementation that allows them to read all of your personal messages.
