First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB)-owned online wallet Payit has entered a partnership with digital support services provider PLATX Omni Channel Conversational Commerce in order to offer a new solution for UAE-headquartered merchants. The two firms said they’ll enable UAE’s merchants to obtain customer payments through the widely-used social messaging app WhatsApp. The service will require merchants to share their WhatsApp-enabled mobile phone numbers with their clients. A chatbot will then walk clients through the payments process, and merchants will be able to get real-time payment confirmation. This will reportedly be the very first WhatsApp-enabled B2C retail payment service to be introduced in the Middle East. The only other WhatsApp-based payment service in the region is PayBot. The chatbot app is used to support mobile bill payments as well as recharges. Ramana Kumar, CEO of FAB subsidiary Magnati, stated: “The solution was designed in line with our robust multi-level encryption to ensure all transactions are secure. At Payit, we continue to introduce such innovative solutions to support our merchant partners especially in the SME segment with robust, cost effective seamless digital checkout experience as well as expand upon payit’s many services to provide a comprehensive digital wallet that serves our customers’…

by Wendy Davis  @wendyndavis, 5 hours ago The head of Facebook's WhatsApp on Friday publicly blasted Apple's decision to scan users' content for illegal images.“Instead of focusing on making it easy for people to report content that's shared with them, Apple has built software that can scan all the private photos on your phone -- even photos you haven't shared with anyone. That's not privacy,” WhatsApp head Will Cathcart said on Twitter.“People have asked if we'll adopt this system for WhatsApp. The answer is no,” he wrote.Cathcart's post came one day after Apple said it will roll out software that scans users' devices for photos that match ones in an existing database of child sex abuse images, and alert outside organizations if users attempt to upload matched photos to iCloud.iPhone and iPad users won't have any choice about downloading the surveillance software.WhatsApp currently says it scans "unencrypted information such as profile and group photos and user reports" for known "child exploitative imagery."Apple also announced its messaging service will scan posts to and from minors for sexual content, but that feature can be turned off by parents.News of Apple's plans roiled privacy advocates, including groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Center for Democracy &…

Truly Cassandra Activity: Through the IP address of our friends you can find out where they are on vacation: here’s how. Photo © Adobe Stock What to do if WhatsApp suddenly turns into a stepping stone? After all, some technological tools really only have one application to predict the future, after which the service will be complete. One of the hidden tricks to hide the well known Facebook appWhile it may seem plausible, it seems to have the potential to turn its user into a new lock. Viewing various Instagram profiles is a great way to see what our friends are doing on vacation. But it is not certain that they are too luxurious with information to write about where they are. Providing WhatsApp is a really crazy feature for those who are interested. In fact, it was actually used for the opposite function, which is to control any annoying numbers and locate and confirm their location It was far from us. During the holidays, however, we need to understand that our friends are relaxing and not disturbing their relaxation. Definitely a good option, not something for travelers.

Not all photos or videos need to (or should) last forever in your camera roll. If you want to send photos that will be opened once and then disappear forever, you can now use WhatsApp to do it (like you already could on Snapchat and Instagram).WhatsApp will now let you send any photo or video in a new “View Once” mode. It’s a simple feature, and not very customizable (you can’t choose a viewing window for the photo, for example). But once the recipient opens and views the media, then navigates away from it, the photo or video will be gone forever. WhatsApp isn’t promoting this feature as a secure way to send photos, as WhatsApp won’t even notify you when the other person takes a screenshot of your photo—something that Snapchat and Instagram do. And using any app, the other person can always use a camera to take a photo of the screen itself. (Essentially, don’t use this to send sensitive photos.)But it can be a great way to quickly share photos of your shopping list, the itinerary for a day out, or even passwords. How to send disappearing messages in WhatsAppTo get started, make sure you’re using the…
