According to a report by WABetaInfo, the Twitter account which tracks changes in WhatsApp build, “the introduction of this feature does not compromise end-to-end encryption as messages, voice calls, media, location sharing, calls, and status updates are all protected by the end-to-end encryption protocol on all devices.”
According to a report by WABetaInfo, the Twitter account which tracks changes in WhatsApp build, “the introduction of this feature does not compromise end-to-end encryption as messages, voice calls, media, location sharing, calls, and status updates are all protected by the end-to-end encryption protocol on all devices.”
The upcoming feature will allow users to report status updates that might violate the platform’s Terms of Service, in addition to the already available feature to report messages, the report adds WABetaInfo.
The feature will be rolled out with a report button that will be available within the status options.
If a WhatsApp user reports a status update, that status/content will be sent to the moderation team for review to check if it violates the platform’s Terms of Service.
The report further adds that,” no one, including WhatsApp, Meta, or any proxy provider, can view the content of your messages or listen to your private calls.”
The feature is currently under development status on WhatsApp beta for Android and it is scheduled to be rolled out in the future.
Presently, WhatsApp allows users to report messages and contacts to WhatsApp in case they think there is a violation of their Terms of Service. When you report a contact, the last 5 messages in the conversation are forwarded to WhatsApp, but you can also choose to report specific messages.
