Taking a screenshot in secret on Messenger, it's almost over

A new Messenger update should be deployed in the coming weeks in France.

And some features should not appeal to some users, especially fans of screenshots.

Soon, a notification will be sent to your interlocutor if you take a screenshot of your private conversation, reports

 on Thursday.

“New update for end-to-end encrypted Messenger conversations so you get notified if someone takes a screenshot of an ephemeral message,” Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg announced on Facebook.

For the time being, this notification would therefore only concern ephemeral messages, that is to say those which disappear automatically when they have been read.

The new feature has already been introduced in the United States, says the

site .

It should come into force in Europe in the coming weeks.

The option would have been put in place for security reasons but also to respond to certain fears of users concerning their freedom of expression, continues

.

After Messenger, Instagram social network conversations could also be affected by this update.
