Whatsapp Will Soon Block You From Receiving Messages And Calls by phonesiq: 12:54pm On May 08, 2021
A recent update on the Whatsapp's website, has disclosed what exactly will happen to the accounts of users who won't be accepting its updated terms and privacy policy.

The Facebook owned messaging platform noted that it's not planning on deleting the accounts of users that don’t accept the new privacy policy but will render them as useless as possible. Whoops, you read that right, and this is how they plan to do it.

Whatsapp accounts that choose not to accept the new and updated privacy terms, the app will continually show a notification requesting you to accept the terms and after a period of about several weeks, the notification will become more frequent and persistent. And then boom, WhatsApp app will automatically switch to a limited functionality mode.

Whatsapp's limited functionality mode will prevents users from accessing their chat list. WhatsApp stated that if they receive a chat, they will be able to open it through their notifications and also respond to them. In this mode, users will also be able to respond to incoming audio and video calls.

Further refusal to accept the terms, the messaging platform will block such users from receiving calls and messages. And these will render the app completely useless to those affected accounts.

It is now a must to expose our privacy. May God help us. The anti-christ is almost here and he is using such in preparation for his kingdom administration

Shut the Bleep up.
You people must bring in this bullshit every time. If you're using an Android phone, Google Chrome and other google apps, you don't have privacy already.
It's the price you pay for getting things for free. The 'antichrist' is nothing but a myth.

Its nothing but a myth, but you'll surely be a victim when it happens. Don't say you weren't warned

You're delusional.
The same way the apostles thought the world would end in their days and it didn't, they're all dead.
Nowadays you guys still live with the grand delusion of rapture

Your interpretation of the bible is very awkward. But that's the price to pay when you're completely ignorant

A religious person accusing someone of ignorance is funny. You believe a book where snakes and donkeys talk. Entire cultures along with their babies are slaughtered in your holy book.

Does that even come close to the what Mao and Stalin did to their own people. 60 million plus people slaughtered just because they wanted to believe in religion. That's how cruel and wicked atheism is

Well, at least there was no atheist conference to endorse those murders. But the bible states express 'divine instructions' to slaughter entire people, including their babies. shocked

Historical records are there. Just do a simple Google check to clear any doubt you may have.

yes there is no doubt you can use FMWhatsApp if you got banned from WhatsApp, but if you already using it with the same number then your account will be completely banned by WhatsApp.

Aw, come on! Why do we always have to run in a totally unrelated direction? That's how y'all'd be saying that every tech advancement is a sign that the sky is falling! Jeez!

I hate arguing religion (been burned too many times over it) but please; remind this guy about the Crusades; or about the Spanish Inquisition, or about the countless wars and conflicts fought since the beginning of time because of religion! In World War I, British, French, Russian, German, Bulgarian, Italian and almost the entire Christians of Europe were killing their fellow Christian brothers in the name of God. And don't you forget that the Church of Germany was behind Hitler when he slaughtered six million Jews! Stop being emotional over the subject of religion!

iOS users be like; 'With iOS 14.5's disable tracking features, now I am safe from the very big orbiting eyes and ears of the Guoanbu and the NSA!
Uh, bro, Apple still tracks you. And nobody can prove it because iOS is closed-source.
There's a damn good reason Zimbabwean rebels never used smartphones to communicate with each other.

[/s] You won't understand. Carnal men don't understand such things and even if it were to be explained, you'd still see it as foolishness. But just pray you'll not be a victim when rapture comes. Because then, this post will testify against you
