Question

Whats this issue about whatsapp's updated version ?

Answer 1

Which issue ? WhatsApp just launched a Snapchat like feature called "status" which replace old status with a new interactive status which has a life span of 24 hours per share.I shared it few weeks back in my Unlock Feature Guide [ https://blog.drhack.net/unlock-hidden-whatsapp-features-beta/ ] its just one step they will be launching more updates as shown in above post .. so watch out

Update: yes it is a privacy disaster I have shared the privacy risk and how you can minimize the risk until WhatsApp fixes their Status Feature in a detailed posts here  [ https://blog.drhack.net/whatsapp-status-feature-privacy-disaster/ ]
