Whatsapp bends to the will of the EU – Such changes are coming

Consumer organizations have complained about the transparency of data protection practices. According to Reuters, the instant messaging service WhatsApp, owned by Meta, has bowed to the will of the EU, and agrees to be more open in 2021 regarding its updated privacy policies. The European Commission announced this on Monday. The European Consumer Organization (BEUC) and the European Consumer Authorities Network had complained to Whatsapp last year that the changes were not communicated clearly and comprehensibly enough.
