WhatsApp has time and time again been rebuked for not taking action against users who utilize groups for illegal activity and spreading malicious news. However, it looks like the messaging giant is finally taking things in its hands. It has now allegedly started handing out bans to groups with suspicious or malicious names.

WhatsApp can’t see the contents of your chat or the call history, but the messaging giant seems to have access to the group’s metadata. It can view the group’s name and related information, including date of creation, group subject, group description, and other data.

Any of the aforementioned parameters can be used to determine that the group is being used for illegal activity. And WhatsApp will deal a remote ban to the group members. In today’s age, where trolling is superior to morals, we expect friends to rename a group to get everyone banned.
