More than 2 billion people worldwide use WhatsApp for video and voice calls, text messages and more. This Internet-based app is especially popular for international calling because it allows for free communication no matter what device you're using or where you're located, with more features than regular text messaging apps — including cross-functionality between iOS and Android systems.But is WhatsApp safe for everyone to use?Is WhatsApp Safe?The app uses end-to-end encryption, preventing third parties from accessing data while it's transferred from the sender to the recipient. Because of this, WhatsApp is generally considered safe for messaging."Any messages sent between any users are fully encrypted, so the only people able to decode them are the sender and recipient — not even WhatsApp," Kristen Bolig, CEO at SecurityNerd, told Business Insider. "So even if hackers intercept a message, they aren't able to decode it."But technology is constantly evolving, and the "bad guys" are always finding new ways to get what they want. And programs can have bugs or weaknesses that give would-be hackers a foothold.For instance, WhatsApp developers found a flaw earlier this year that made the app vulnerable to malware. Attackers could potentially install malicious software onto WhatsApp users' phones remotely during video calls.Fortunately, they issued an update with

Online gambling is currently illegal in Zimbabwe, but during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, concluding on Sunday, the East African nation is home to a growing grey market drawing a number of customers — mainly unemployed young adults — to tap into offshore international internet betting platforms. The combination of cheap Chinese smartphones, WhatsApp organizing, and offshore websites where people place bets is helping people in Zimbabwe defy online betting rules and power outages, and wager ruthlessly on the unpredictable results of matches in this historic World Cup —  in which Morocco rode its underdog status to the semifinals, the first African team to do so. “My family needs to eat,” explained Nathan Mlilo, 24, who lives in Mutare, the country’s third biggest city. “In a day, l need $5 to decently survive my wife and two kids, not easy in Zimbabwe. Unlawful web sports betting is my salvation.” Africa has the largest number of people who engage in online sports betting between the age of 15 and 24, according to a study from Delasport in 2021. Gambling and sports betting offline in physical spaces is not something new in Zimbabwean culture. Betting houses in physical locations throughout

Executive summary As the Kremlin’s war on Ukraine unfolded, Russian state media and diplomatic accounts online began a deliberate, coordinated effort to spread propaganda that aims to justify or deflect blame for the violence. They continue to broadcast this propaganda around the world, including, rather intensively, in Latin America. In a region that contains both U.S. partners and friends of Moscow, public opinion about the conflict still appears to be up for grabs. An analysis of Russian state-backed content on Twitter and Facebook targeted to audiences in Latin America suggests: Soon after Russia invaded Ukraine, Russian state media and diplomatic accounts began a concerted effort to push their messaging about the conflict to audiences in Latin America. According to data collected for this paper, the proportion of all posts about Ukraine-focused topics by these accounts tripled, and engagement with posts about Ukraine — in the form of likes, comments, shares, and other reactions — increased by more than 400%. Kremlin propaganda sought to justify the invasion by asserting that there was an existential threat: Moscow argued that the Ukrainian government, led by “drug addicts and neo-Nazis,” was committing genocide against Russian-speaking people in the eastern part of the country.1 As
