I have always been very aware of WhatsApp and also aware that it gets hacked. Many of my clients use this product but I have never used it because I know that it’s not trustworthy. 

Why on earth are people so silly as to use this service? Like TikTok too, spying and hacking go hand in hand with both of these, yet people ignore the facts. Here’s an idea, stop using the platform and stick with more secure platforms. 

If you don’t use MALWAREBYTES then at least sign up for their newsletter and stay informed on the latest developments and protect your privacy and security. Change your passwords regularly and make sure you have two step verification on everything.
