Apparently Europe finally got Whatsapp to enable 3rd party chats making it easier to switch to more privacy friendly alternatives article However the only other app that currently works with it is “BirdyChat”??
Have anybody found any news about when serious alternatives will be integrated?
WhatsApp uses the same encryption protocol as Signal. Theoretically they should already be interoperable.
Except then the WhatsApp front end could hoover up all the data, or the report feature would upload the entire convo, or the long list of exteremely serious exploits WhatsApp has had
Which would that be?
The Signal Protocol.
