Stop Using WhatsApp If You Care About Your Privacy
Privacy has always been a key feature and popular selling point for the messaging app WhatsApp. Company co-founder Jan Koum grew up in the Soviet Union under heavy government surveillance, and he promised to keep user data protected after Facebook acquired WhatsApp in 2014.

PSA: Content Warnings aren't self censorship, nor are they censorship of any sorts, if they were censorship it would mean no one could read/view the content even if they chose to.
