- Messages delivered via Messenger will be end-to-end encrypted by default, meaning Facebook itself won’t see the contents, along with the platform will integrate with WhatsApp.
- Instagram will be trialing a”private like counts” feature which would conceal the”likes.”
- There’ll be more transient methods to share content in messages – meaning there won’t be a permanent record of them.
- A WhatsApp safe payment service trialed in India is to be rolled out to other countries later this year.
