WhatsApp is introducing an 'Advanced Chat Privacy' feature to boost user privacy by restricting the export of chat histories and automatic downloading of media. This setting is particularly useful in group conversations with unfamiliar participants where sensitive information may be shared. While specific safeguards against screenshots remain unclear, the new feature represents an ongoing development in WhatsApp's privacy offerings. Users can activate this option through chat settings, signaling WhatsApp's commitment to user security and responsiveness to privacy concerns in digital communication.
"We think this feature is best used when talking with groups where you may not know everyone closely but are nevertheless sensitive in nature."
"The Advanced Chat Privacy setting will prevent this in group and individual chats, ensuring users have more control over their conversation privacy."
