End To End Encryption (E2EE) is a very precise term meaning that something gets encrypted on your device and doesn't (usually can't) get decrypted by anything other than the destination. I don't know what they call it, but if Whatsapp calls it E2E then it's a misnomer. They encrypt to and from their central server, which is not E2EE.

WhatsApp claims it is true e2ee. Do you have evidence of it not?
