WhatsApp has revealed an unprecedented, extremely serious problem that affects a very large number of users around the world, probably hundreds of millions of people, and although it was discovered now it would be old. It seems that WhatsApp has indexed by Google the phone numbers that are active on the platform, and the use of special word combinations will allow you to see various phone numbers that you can call through the platform.
WhatsApp there is an extremely serious problem discovered here because it is about people's personal data that is indexed by the biggest search engine in the whole world. Those from Google are not to blame here, only WhatsApp is to blame for not blocking the access of the American company's robot to the phone numbers that are active on its platform, so implicitly anyone can discover this information to call the respective phone numbers.
WhatsApp: ATTENTION, SERIOUS Problem for MILLIONS of People
WhatsApp has a system available through the "wa.me" internet domain, which is used to call even phone numbers that are not in a person's contact book. Despite the fact that this system was supposed to remain hidden from anyone who wants to discover the phone numbers that are active on the WhatsApp platform, well here something completely opposite is happening, unfortunately, and because of this quite a lot of people can suffer people.
WhatsApp he has not yet commented on the situation, but he will most likely blame those from Google, as he did when the active chat groups were indexed in his platform, avoiding taking responsibility. WhatsApp still needs to solve the problem because having people's phone numbers active in a search engine, where they can be discovered by anyone, is a huge problem, which could also attract the attention of the European Commission, due to GDPR.
WhatsApp she will more than likely be involved in the next period in finding a solution for this problem, but it remains to be seen exactly what she could manage to do in a very short time.
