[Veille 📣] On WhatsApp’s Recent Data Leak – Threema

Une bonne réponse de @threemaapp sur la "fuite" WhatsApp.

Non, ce n’est pas une fuite, les données sont publiques.

> As has been shown, it is somewhat of an exaggeration to speak of a “data leak” in this case, given that the accessed information was public. When users make information public, it is in the nature of things that anyone can view – and potentially save – it.

Et le fond du problème c’est l’identification par numéro de téléphone, qui n’est pas facilement modifiable vous en conviendrez.
