Encrypted meaning a 3rd party cant access whatsapp data except through the help of the 1st and 2nd party after data has been decrypted on either end. . In the encrypted form it cant be viewed, yes the encrypted data could be leaked but cant be viewed. |

They read everything and tracked a suspect down. Work of the secret service |

pansophist:You're right about this but one still needs backup because WhatsApp was designed to give zero storage for user, hence , you need storage to keep your data either on your phone or Gmail and you need back some data up because should something happen to your WhatsApp, you loss all the data, hence, need for backup but you do need back it up on your phone storage, never on Gmail because it could be intercepted and decrypted. |

litigator:Meta owns Fbk, Insta.. WhatsApp Specific keywords are built in + regularly added into the "system" you may not be aware of until you see a drone over your apartment ![]() URLs that's "good for business" are also another priority "Personalized Ads" based on your chat history, clicks, impressions, webpg visits.. are not jokes too cos, Ads agencies pay a lot to Meta for such "encrypted" data ![]() |

You get hold of the phone and then physical of the app.... That way you operate the phone just like you operate your on a day to day basis.. But to break externally via hacking it's not possible because there are multiple encryption generation machines that generates a specific key for the ID of the phone Every installation of whatAPP app comes with an ID... Control the phone you control all apps without the need to actually break into the apps. |

flames007: A little correction sir, 'It's practically possible to intercept a message but a lot difficult to decrypt". Nothing is impossible. Secondly, a message can be intercepted just as the sender hit the send button and right before its encrypted (rootkit). Having said that, just as you stated, most leaks happen from either the sender or the receiver and not particularly by man-in-the-middle scenario. |

Someone has answered you already on the thread the data (message) in transit is what is encrypted but the data at rest that's the WhatsApp message on you see on you fone which is the decrypted msg which is what is actually leaked. That's how the encryption thing works. Yes u can intercept the data in transit but best of look with cracking the thing tho.cheers Destined2lead: |

For some of us that don't understand what end to end means. Man A wants to text Man B Look at what happens: Man A: hello Middle person: * shift+alter**&[]!end: Man B ( receives the message as hello) Then those who tries to see their messages would see it as the middle person. 1 Like |

flames007: It's not impossible to intercept data in transit. It's done and regularly. Which is the reason why https was born. Https will not prevent an attacker from intercepting data, but he will only get the encrypted version, as all data is transmitted as plain text. That encrypted data can only be decrypted if he has access to the encrypting technology and the key. Among other names, this kind of attacks are known as Man in the middle attack Package spoofing Etc So please rewrite your submission. You're on first page and a lot of people are going to be misled. Thanks. 1 Like |
