    WhatsApp can read your messages.

    And the metadata’s not encrypted.

    Unfortunately, too many hear “encrypted” and assume it’s automatically secure or private no matter what.

    Facebook told Gizmodo that WhatsApp can read messages because they’re considered a version of direct messaging between the company and the reporter. They added that users who report content make the conscious choice to share information with Facebook; by their logic, Facebook’s collection of that material doesn’t conflict with end-to-end encryption.
