Elon Musk says can’t trust WhatsApp; Meta-owned platform hits back
Elon Musk and Telegram’s CEO have publicly questioned WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption, citing a new lawsuit alleging Meta secretly accessed user messages. WhatsApp vehemently denies these claims, asserting their decade-old encryption protects chats. The lawsuit, filed by international plaintiffs, accuses Meta of defrauding users by maintaining ‘backdoor’ access to private communications.
