WhatsApp Messenger is the largest cross-platform messaging app. It has over 1.5 billion active monthly users who share texts, images, videos and audio messages.
With the end-to-end encryption in play, WhatsApp promises no middlemen can access the messages you have sent or received.
However, some malpractices can land you behind bars since inappropriate behaviour on online platforms is considered as a cyber-crime.
