    I thought WhatsApp used the same encryption tech/lib/method as Signal? But again, as you said, still only for chats?

    But how would anyone know if we’re talking about Palestine or whatever, if chats are encrypted? Or do you mean talking about Palestine elsewhere where it isn’t encrypted, and then it’s linked to me via WhatsApp connecting us?

      Yes, if someone talks about it on fb or insta, it would be immediately linked with their phone number which is also a requirement for Whatsapp.

      I was recently watching an interview with some tech workers who were fired for voicing their opinion against israel and one of them was from Meta and she confirmed that meta is closely working with IDF especially sharing WhatsApp meta data.

        Weeell then, that’s pretty fucked up. Yeah. Going to continue recommending other alternatives, in that case.

        Thanks so much for sharing.
