As if the WhatsApp app wasn't already in the midst of a blue-chip scandal - it seems that Facebook, which acquired the company, is planning sweeping changes to our privacy, changes that will allow us to filter less, or make it clear to the people we correspond with that we are not really obligated to respond at any given moment.
The latest update from WhatsApp mainly deals with groups: you can now appoint more than one administrator to a group, and as an added bonus - after increasing the number of group members to 100 - you can now also see who is typing in the group. You might have time to escape the app before it knows you read the message and ignored it.
It should be noted that WhatsApp added a setting that allows you to delete the blue checkmark, perhaps as a last-minute move, before the masses would abandon it in favor of the competitor Telegram, or have we already gotten used to the fact that there is no such thing as privacy?
