WhatsApp today he has a radical decision that blocked the internet, and this is because it comes "out of nowhere", and hits very hard on many people who actually use the service for communication in their everyday life. Facebook has announced that it will prohibit those from Huawei from pre-installing its application in its phones, as well as those for WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Instagram, and this is a very big blow for the Chinese company.
WhatsApp. Even if in China this ban is "equal to zero", in the rest of the world it is an extremely hard blow for Huawei, because social networks are extremely popular. I say that it is a very hard blow because WhatsApp will not have the right to integrate the Google Play Store application in phones either, so users will have nowhere to get the application, except from an application store made by Huawei.
WhatsApp. The RADICAL decision that BLOCKED the Internet
WhatsApp. What this means ? Well, this means that people will have to install applications distributed by Huawei through its own store, so there are chances that they will be modified to intercept data. Practically all those who will be willing to buy Huawei phones will have to accept the fact that WhatsApp applications. The RADICAL decision that BLOCKED the Internet, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, etc., could have data intercepted by the Chinese.
Facebook Inc is no longer allowing pre-installation of its apps on Huawei phones, the latest blow for the Chinese tech giant as it struggles to keep its business afloat in the face of a US ban on its purchase of American parts and software. Customers who already have Huawei phones will still be able to use its apps and receive updates, Facebook told Reuters. But new Huawei phones will no longer be able to have Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram apps pre-installed.
WhatsApp. The decision of those from Facebook is completely related to the bans that the USA has imposed against Huawei, and this is because both companies have collaborated repeatedly for phone launches. Now it seems that Huawei remains more and more "alone", Donald Trump managing to marginalize the Chinese company through sanctions that seem to have much greater repercussions than many people imagined at the time of their announcement.
WhatsApp. The other phones with the Android operating system will not have any problem in being launched with the Facebook company's applications pre-installed, so only those from Huawei will be severely hit by this decision.
