WhatsApp and its parent company Meta have challenged the IT Rules, 2021, introduced by the Indian government that requires the platform the trace chats. The Centre has argued that such a provision helps create a safe cyberspace by countering illegal content and trace fake messages.
Twitter is not offering a direct reporting option for encrypted messages. Instead, the users are advised to report any issues with a conversation participant separately. The company currently allow a maximum of ten devices per user for encrypted messages.
The group conversations will feature a "This chat is now end-to-end encrypted" banner, and the send button will have a lock icon. This will prevent Google or third parties from reading the contents of users' RCS chats during transit between the sender and receivers.
The platform mentioned that its newest advanced security offering called 'Customer Managed Key' (CMK) has been designed to help users to address stricter compliance requirements.
