Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media
Online Safety, Online Disinformation and Media Literacy: Discussion
Mr. Dualta ? Broin:
WhatsApp is a fundamentally different type of technology. It is end-to-end encrypted. In that case, we cannot scan the content of the messages. We cannot go in and scan what is actually happening in the messages in the same way as we could scan posts on Facebook on public profiles etc. We rely on users reporting the content from WhatsApp in-app. That is not just because of end-to-end encryption. That is because of EU law as well in relation to this-----
