Although both Signal and Whatsapp have their privacy policy which explains how they protect user’s privacy, However, Signal seems to have an edge over Whatsapp when it comes to privacy as it provides additional options like blocking screenshots, blurring faces before sending, and etc.
Should you be Worried about Whatsapp Privacy Policy changes?
When Whatsapp made the announcement about the new changes to their Privacy policy, a lot of the social app users were concerned about the changes and vow to leave the app for Signal. However, Whatsapp had created an additional FAQ page to educate users about the data which is being collected.
On this page, Whatsapp mentioned the policy update does not affect the privacy of your messages with friends or family in any way. You can find more details about the Information Whatsapp is collecting
Whatsapp has been quite around for a while and it has really make messaging more simpler and faster for everyone. From what I’ve heard so far, While some people argue it’s a misunderstanding of information on the user part, some argue it was a fault from Mark Zuckerberg part for taking such a step on privacy policy.
