There is another use case for disappearing messages: protection against domestic violence. If the violent partner checks the victim's device, seeing messages might incite an attack.

I don't get it. If one's phone is on the same LAN as the PC, why not just start sshd on the PC (if not already running) and send the files using scp?
AFAIK there was another problem with the list of installed fonts (only relevant if the mentioned experimental feature is not used): the list was retrieved from the OS in randomized order and then kept forever. This allowed distinguishing even amongst users who had only the default fonts as shipped by the OS. Will they be either sorted alphabetically now or at least freshly randomized every time?

Genau die falsche Entscheidung. Man sollte endlich Prüfungen und Hausarbeiten abschaffen, deren Sinn nur in Auswendiglernen und Gelaber besteht, analog auch nach der Ausbildung die Kriterien von Labern auf Machen umstellen. Das Problem ist ja nicht neu, nur wird jetzt es richtig sichtbar. Früher führte es nur dazu, dass Leute wie Relotius hochgespült wurden.
