Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp rolls out group call scheduling for Android beta

With the recent release of numerous new upgrades, WhatsApp has now included yet another intriguing feature for group calls. Group calls (audio/video) will soon be able to be scheduled, and the members will receive the call link automatically at the scheduled time.

A report claims that WhatsApp is introducing its Android beta users to group call scheduling. WhatsApp has strengthened its platform with the addition of this new functionality in an effort to compete with Zoom and Google Meet. Customers will now have the option to schedule calls.

The group call scheduling function, according to the website, is present in the most recent WhatsApp beta for Android 2.23.17.7, however, it may also be present in the 2.23.17.5 and 2.23.17.6 versions.

YouTube no longer recommend videos to users if their watch history is turned off

The widely used video streaming service YouTube, which has recently made numerous modifications to its user interface, has now declared that it will no longer recommend content to users if their watch history is off.

The application will immediately disable the video recommendations if users have disabled their watch history and have no watch history, according to the help page.

This suggests that users’ home feeds can now seem rather different. The left-hand navigation menu and a search bar will no longer offer a stream of suggested videos, making it simpler for users to search, browse subscribed channels, and explore Topic tabs.

$5 bn Google lawsuit over ‘incognito mode’ tracking close to trial

The $5 billion Google lawsuit about the tracking that occurs when using the Chrome browser’s “incognito mode” has moved one step closer to trial after a US court denied the tech giant’s motion for summary judgment.

In a California court on Monday, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez-Rogers rejected Google’s request for summary judgment in the lawsuit, which contended that the internet giant is tracking and gathering data even when users utilize the private ‘Incognito’ mode on its Chrome browser.

Users have the option to use Google Chrome’s “Incognito” mode to browse the internet without having their activity saved to the browser or their devices.

According to The Verge, the judge cited statements made in the Chrome privacy notice, privacy policy, incognito splash screen, and search & browse privately help page regarding how incognito mode restricts the information kept or allows users to manage the information they share.

Hacking is impossible with this update of WhatsApp, will get email link feature

The developer of the well-known messaging service WhatsApp is always adding new features to enhance the chatting experience for its users. This new function has a security feature. The company will soon offer users the email address link capability. WhatsApp previously announced security features including account safeguard and device verification in April.

The company is now introducing the capability of email address links for consumers in light of the rising instances of cybercrime and WhatsApp scam. This will greatly improve the security of your WhatsApp account and make it exceedingly difficult for anyone to hack into it.

To give users of the app the option to link their accounts with emails, WhatsApp has issued the Android 2.23.16.15 beta version. WhatsApp’s new security feature will be entirely optional.

This feature is currently being tested, and only a small number of beta testers have been given access to it. If all of the testing goes perfectly, it will shortly be made available to all users.

Meta-owned Instagram will now better protect users from unwanted DM requests

A new update will be made available on Instagram, which is owned by Meta, to better safeguard users from unsolicited DMs.

Two additional limitations will apply to users who want to send DM requests to users who do not follow them as a result of this new feature.

First, instead of sending unending DM requests to those who don’t follow them, users will only be able to send them one message. Second, since direct message invitations are now just text-based, users can only send images, movies, or audio messages to those who don’t follow them once they accept the invitation to chat.

The new restrictions will prevent users from receiving unwanted images or videos from people they do not follow, nor will strangers be able to repeatedly message them.

Hackers are using a fake Android chatting app called ‘SafeChat’ to steal data

Hackers are infecting devices with spyware malware that harvests call logs, texts, and GPS positions from phones by utilizing the phony Android app ‘SafeChat’.

The Android spyware is thought to be a variation of “Coverlm,” which steals data from messaging apps like Facebook Messenger, Telegram, Signal, WhatsApp, and Viber.

According to CYFIRMA experts, the campaign is being run by the Indian APT hacking outfit “Bahamut,” whose most recent attacks have been primarily spear phishing messages on WhatsApp that transfer the harmful payloads directly to the victim.

ESET revealed before the end of last year that the Bahamut group was employing phony Android VPN apps with substantial spyware features.

Meta’s Twitter rival, Threads, is now under investigation by the US House Judiciary

The US House Judiciary is currently looking into Meta’s Twitter competitor, Threads, and has reportedly requested documentation about content control on the new site from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Threads has surpassed 150 million sign-ups.

According to CNBC, House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has requested information from Zuckerberg “as part of the panel’s ongoing investigation into the policies of tech platforms and their interactions with the Joe Biden administration.”

Jordan stated in the letter that “Threads raises substantial, specific issues since it has been pitched as a competitor of Elon Musk’s Twitter, which has been politically persecuted by the Biden Administration due to Musk’s devotion to free expression.

Despite Meta’s Threads crossing 150 million sign-ups, its daily usage has declined, with users now spending just 10 minutes instead of 20 minutes, a 50% reduction.
