WhatsApp’s controversial privacy policy update that was announced earlier this year has made privacy-conscious users switch to secure WhatsApp alternatives like Signal. While it initially decided to limit accounts that don’t accept the new privacy policy, the Facebook-owned company later called off its plan to retain the userbase. In a new development, tipster WABetaInfo has found evidence suggesting that the company is testing a new approach for users who are not willing to accept the new privacy policy.
According to WABetaInfo’s report, WhatsApp will soon announce that you can continue using the messaging app to stay in touch with your friends and family. So, what’s the catch? Well, going by the report, WhatsApp will now make users accept the privacy policy to chat with business accounts that use cloud providers. Image: WABetaInfo
