The Times of India writes about it.
“Requiring messaging apps to track chats is like asking us to keep a fingerprint of every message we send to WhatsApp, it will break end-to-end encryption and fundamentally undermine people's privacy,” said a spokesperson for the messenger.
He noted that the company "around the world constantly opposes requirements that would violate the privacy of ... users."
Earlier it was reported that scammers introduced a new scheme of deception after updating the WhatsApp rules.
