If you have nothing to hide... but then they just change the laws, now you are a criminal and they already have handy tools in place to convict you.
You cannot be convicted for an action that was made illegal after you comitted it. This is just Facebook sucking data and making money off others' misfortune. I am sure that they didn't hand over the chat logs for free. "I got nothing to hide" is exactly the reason Meta is a multi-billion company. Your agenda should be "I have nothing to gain from sharing my life with them".
It's like "don't talk to cops, it will not help you".
They handed over the chat logs in response to a court order to do so. The gov't didn't pay them. They forced them.
