The media calls everyone an expert, I'm sorry but I do not see how this is a setback for the "spy bill " . Many other messaging services beside Whatsapp provide end to end encryption, so how about that ?

Come again

Are u this dumb? Or u didn't do comprehension in primary school?
Reading well, or if u are up to date with tech u wld know that end to end encryption cannot be intercepted by third parties except if whatsapp themselves want to divulge that info to whichever 3rd party this is.

iMessage provides Encryption that's why it is very safe to communicate with that cos no one reads ur messages except the sender and the receiver. The FBI is even trying hard to let Apple unlock a suspected bomber's iPhone handset but Apple isn't cos it also wants to protect its consumers.

If a whole FBI can't even get into this data without the provider's consent,what is ghana government or Gh BNI?

I'm glad whatsapp has this now, this is when spy bill died, lol

Believing Apple and FBI I think you are deluded. They are just tricking it customer that they are not cooperating with the government but in the dark they are.

You are rather the fool. For your information, the FBI has already cracked the encryption on that suspected terrorist's phone just a week and half ago without the help of iPhone's guys. iMessage and the likes possessed these encryption all these while and that of the WhatsApp is nothing new in the tech world.

However, the government's 'Spy Bill' was considered knowing all the above. So, why must the latest WhatsApp encryption give them a headache should the bill go through? All these bullshit of experts simply do not know the entails of the 'Spy Bill' or if the know, they don't really understand it, period. As for you, try up-to-date activities near you, pal.
