Are video calls placed through FB messenger really private or safe? What is the probability that it could be sniffed or intercepted by hackers? Is Facebook recording the data or just meta data of the video calls? If so, for how long?

Answered by Amit Sinha

The answer to - Is Facebook video calling safe and private is that Nothing is safe. But it is always a question of how much effort needed to attack specific resource, and how much trust you give to people that hold the data and build software. No need to be paranoid, but its healthy to ask yourself questions, like: "How much privacy I would like to achieve?" "Am I trust "Company" as company?" "And what about sysadmin "Bob" and developer "Alice" in this company?" "How much my privacy important for me and how much money need someone to put to break into my privacy?" and so on..
