WhatsApp’s latest privacy policy settings have had serious repercussions for the instant messaging app as its main competitor, Telegram, has managed to become the most downloaded app globally.
Sensor Tower, a mobile app rating company, has stated in accordance with its findings that chat application telegram has become the most downloaded non-gaming app in January 2021.
Telegram, according to Sensor Tower’s report, added a whopping 63 million more users in the month of January. If one were to compare these figures with those of January 2020, the preceding one year, the downloads have increased to more than 3.8 folds.
Ever since WhatsApp rolled out its latest privacy policy rules, according to which users’ data can be shared with Facebook, people, multinational companies and even in some other cases, governments, have gotten alarmed over the alleged lack of privacy.
