Same article says, " Whatsapp said the targets included well-known television personalities" Probably friends of Mark Z's. If it was a hack of the average John and Jane Doe, doubtful FB would do anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudgirl Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Stuff like this is why I don't have a Facebook account or use Whatsapp. The more "accounts" you have the more opportunity to get hacked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Solar Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 WhatsApp was and is a great app, before FB took it over.....and so far they don't seem to have "messed" with it....secure end to end (normally.....)! 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisbee Gal Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I find that Mexican workers and other nationals that I do business with, prefer Whatsapp and get back to me the fastest using it. I wish FB didn't own it, but it is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
