WhatsApp threatens to shut down in the UK over Online Safety Bill
WhatsApp users in the United Kingdom could be forced to use a different communication app if the company is forced to break end-to-end encryption.
Critics of the Online Safety Bill, which is being considered by the government, say that it will effectively enable the agency to break end-to-end encryption. Will Cathcart, Meta’s head of WhatsApp, says that the company would rather be banned from the country than break end-to-end encryption on its app.
