WhatsApp has been at the center of a massive privacy scandal earlier this year, as Facebook attempted to force users to agree to new terms of service. Facebook wanted WhatsApp users to consent to share e-commerce data regardless of whether they use the app to talk to businesses or not. Ultimately, Facebook changed its mind, allowing people to use WhatsApp without agreeing to the privacy policy update. During this time, Facebook insisted in its messaging that the core WhatsApp privacy features aren’t going away. The messaging app remains end-to-end encrypted, and the strong encryption applies to both chat and calls. In the future, Facebook plans additional privacy improvements for users, including an updated “Last Seen” functionality.
