The application thus seeks to be more blunt and prevent misuse of the application. In addition to officially warning, something that until now had not happened.

Legal actions

This new WhatsApp announcement means that if you use an unauthorized app, if you develop mass mailing tools, or try to access user data, violating the application's security, among other actions, you will take legal action. against the people who carry this out. A surprisingly tough ad for the app. Although they have a couple of reasons why they introduce stricter regulations.
