“Twitter” leader Elon Musk has advised his 139 million followers, and others who read the tweets he writes in “what is said and indicated” style, not to trust the WhatsApp application owned by the company “Meta”, which also owns the famous site web “Facebook”.
Musk, who bought “Twitter” last October for $44 billion, wrote a tweet, complementing what was published by Foad Dabiri, director of Twitter’s engineering department, that “WhatsApp was using the microphone while I was sleeping until I woke up at six in the morning .. so which Being “? A hint that the application is intercepting it without his permission, while the video shown explains more.
And “WhatsApp” responded with a tweet, which had repeatedly reassured its users of the same, that the user of the application “has full control over his microphone settings, and only once permission has been granted,” WhatsApp ” accesses the microphone when the user makes a call or records a voice note or video and, until then, communications are protected with end-to-end encryption in so that WhatsApp can’t listen to them”.
However, Dabiri did post a picture of what the app’s microphone looks like in his tweet in different times of dawn, i.e. when he was sleeping, which Musk warned him about, so he wrote a tweet above Dabiri’s tweet, in which he said: “WhatsApp can’t be trusted” and followed him an hour for a second from A critical type, he said: “Don’t trust anything, not even anything” in a piece of advice of pure nihilism.
