WhatsApp launched "Advanced Chat Privacy," a new feature enhancing chat security. This setting prevents chat exporting, automatic media downloads, and Meta AI interaction within chats, bolstering privacy for sensitive discussions. While screenshots remain possible, future updates may address this. The feature is rolling out gradually across chats and groups, adding another layer of protection to WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption.
