Delhi : WhatsApp has recently added a number of security-related features to the instant messaging service. Additionally, the business has stated on numerous occasions that they prioritise keeping WhatsApp safe and secure for all users. The software now contains a tonne of security features, in reality. To name a few, there is end-to-end encryption, two-factor authentication, and chat lock. All of these features guarantee that users' privacy is always secure.

A recent report appears to suggest otherwise, which is causing a lot of anxiety. Foad Dabiri, a Twitter developer, was the catalyst for everything. A recent screenshot Dabiri posted on Twitter shows that the chat app frequently exploited his phone's microphone while he was sleeping. Many questions concerning the security of our privacy on WhatsApp have been raised as a result of this tweet.

RESPONSE OF ELON MUSK TO DABIRI'S TWEET REGARDING WHATSAPP PRIVACY QUESTIONS

This Tweet immediately caught the attention of many users, including Twitter CEO Elon Musk. Musk made a comment by stating "WhatsApp cannot be trusted" in response to the tweet. Musk's post attracted a number of other people, including WhatsApp, who responded. WhatsApp claims that it is an Android problem in their reply on Twitter. Additionally, they claimed that they had already contacted with Google about the issue and requested that they repair it.

Whatsapp has been utilising the microphone in the background while I was asleep and ever since I got up at 6AM, according to Dabiri's tweet, which was accompanied by a screenshot.
