WhatsApp: IMPORTANT decision, what it does for iPhone, Android

WhatsApp reporting

WhatsApp has made and revealed a very important decision for iPhone and Android phones around the world, the messaging application having made a change that everyone should know about. More precisely, those at WhatsApp have decided to implement a new important function within the messaging application that gives users the opportunity to report the messages they receive from various people on the platform at any time.

WhatsApp comes with this major change as an extremely interesting surprise, and this is because until this moment it was possible to report individual messages from conversations or groups. Now those at WhatsApp are helping people to report individual messages, most likely in an attempt to reduce the spread of false information, but also attacks that attempt to steal people's data or money.

WhatsApp also changes the method by which messages are reported, so that if when we report a contact, the last 5 messages are sent to the American company for analysis, now only the reported one is sent. The modification aims to reduce the type of information that users send to WhatsApp for analysis in order to detect problems and block the phone number from which the respective messages are sent.

WhatsApp has been under serious pressure for some time due to phishing campaigns, or disinformation campaigns, which are distributed en masse within the messaging platform all over the world. This new functionality is implemented as a measure to reduce to a certain extent the pressure that is put on WhatsApp, and in the subsidiary it helps people to get rid of attacks that do them no good in any way and that can be extremely dangerous.

WhatsApp currently has this new functionality only in the development process and is offered only for the beta versions of the application for iPhone and Android phones.
