WhatsApp bug likely lets blocked users send messages
This new WhatsApp bug has rendered the blocking feature useless.
For quite some time, WhatsApp is under the spotlight things. A few weeks back, the messaging platform owned by Facebook was plagued by a mysterious timestamp bug. Now, the app appears to be affected by another bug. As per the information WABetaInfo Twitter handle, the new bug lets blocked users send messages. It is said to have affected both the Android and iOS versions of the app.
The tipster is alleged to have got messages from users complaining about how blocked contacts could send them messages. Besides sending messages, it is claimed that the blocked users can take a look at a person's profile photo and status as well.
Usually, when someone blocks contacts on WhatsApp, the blocked users cannot access the profile of the person, see the status and send messages. Check out what will happen if you block someone on WhatsApp from here. The blocking feature is significant for those users who want to stay safe from online abuse or stalking.
