    as much as one hates whatsapp, the headline is not the most accurate. the article states that it’s not specifically a vulnerability in whatsapp itself that exposes a correlation between a sender of a message and probable recipients.

    this is a flaw that can be used regardless of your choice of messaging platform. but, yeah, even if whatsapp itaelf didnt drop the ball in this particular instance, still don’t use it.
