When the company decided to change their Terms and Conditions, the latest WhatsApp Update didn't sit well with users. Now, as the WhatsApp company faces charges in an Indian Court, they denied oversharing user's info online. The Terms and Conditions set for the online app include the sharing of mobile number of the user to Facebook.
Now, as they face charges over compromising user's rights and privacy, the company is at risk of getting banned in some regions. But instead of making their claims solid and secure users of their privacy, a statement from WhatsApp, addressed to the Delhi court suggested, fans can opt out of the messaging app.
The question now is, are they really securing their users? Or are they just moving forward with the 'take-it-or-leave-it' notion to consumers? "There is no question of messages, photographs or documents getting shared with Facebook. We have no access to the content."
The question now lies on WhatsApp's promise not to share any information with Facebook when the latter acquired it in 2014. Apparently, their claims only lasted while the old Terms and Conditions apply. Now, things have changed and the need to share infor brings so much revenue to online social media sites. The latest WhatsApp Update may have capitalized on this new trend.
The WhatsApp Update that involved its Terms and Conditions linking the user's number on Facebook claims, it will help enhance the delivery of fitting advertisement to the user. Also, it will help in preventing spam messages from reaching the user's phone. However, it's last statement also said that, the changes will also help WhatsApp determine their number of users.
