This is an interesting point. If my server is hosted in California where abortion is legal, and some police dept from Alabama wants access to my message database, can I tell them to pound sand?

IIUC no. All of the US and some allied countries respect court orders. In general evidence can be collected worldwide as long as the crime was committed where it is a crime.

But IANAL.

Facebook doesn't use e2e.

There is a private chat e2e feature, but then your chats don't show up on PC.
