Let me tell you WhatsApp uses metadata to extremes

Didn’t find anything more reliable than Reddit lol

But the metadata is enough to ad target you!


I believe they encrypt the actual message contents but before that they would utilise all the related info (during image compression the specifics of image, location, phone camera etc) to profile you! And in case of regular messages they’d probably keep the timings of messages in-encrypted and those are enough to predict relationship between people connecting!

All that feeds to Instagram ad engine to make you buy things you don’t need!
