WhatsApp, the well-known instant messaging application owned by Meta, is developing a new and controversial feature : the third blue check mark.
This innovation aims to notify users when a screenshot is taken of their conversations, both in individual and group chats, thus intensifying the platform’s security and privacy measures.
More security and privacy
The update, which is still in development, expands the capabilities of the two existing blue checkmarks, which indicate the receipt and reading of messages.
This third flag is intended to provide an additional layer of transparency in communication. This feature has sparked a debate about its impact on privacy and the legitimate use of screenshots .
The introduction of this new signal has generated mixed opinions. On the one hand, there are those who argue that it could serve as a recording tool in situations where an important conversation needs to be held.
