> The current title is clickbait
Can you state anything factually wrong with the title? Wikipedia states clickbait as misleading.
Now that I think of it, I should have used 'will' instead of 'can'. You don't have any choice, which 'can' might imply. But that would be even more clickbaity based on your assessment
>I wouldn’t be worried about “warning” people
Okay. I wanted to warn people even before they get this update, so I posted it.
- surround 6y agoThere is nothing factually wrong with the current title. Nonetheless, it is misleading. Recent news surrounding WhatsApp has people worried that they’re going to start breaking encryption and violating people’s privacy. When I first read the title, I thought that WhatsApp was sending a copy of your messages when you report someone without telling you. I’m certain it wasn’t your intent to convey this meaning, but based upon other people’s reactions to the title, I don’t think I’m the only one who read it this way.
