As you may already know, WhatsApp allows you to block annoying contacts who won't stop harassing you through the messaging client, but the The fact that you were blocked or blocked had no additional effect, at least not until now. WhatsApp could suspend your account if too many people block you
WhatsApp is not the most used application in the world, curiously, although it is one of the most popular. There are a large number of alternatives, but most users prefer this social network for its simplicity, with which we can quickly protect our privacy by blocking those who do not interest us.
WhatsApp will suspend the account if you are blocked
It seems that Mark Zuckerberg and his team are taking privacy seriously in their recent acquisition. WhatsApp, now part of Facebook, is borrowing some features from what is still the best social network in the world so far, especially in terms of security and privacy.
The success of WhatsApp is such that more and more advertising companies are taking advantage of this medium to send spam messages to their users, leaving SMS aside. A good measure to combat them would be this: suspend a WhatsApp user's account when they have received a large number of blocks
Zuckerberg also thought so and we already have the first indications that this measure will be firm and will be available very soon in the popular messaging client.
Beware of spam and blocking
But this will not only affect companies that use this channel to send advertising. On a more basic level, it could also happen to us if we accumulate a large number of blocks from our contacts, since it has not yet been established what limit we must exceed to for this event to take place.
The best recommendation to follow is use the service for the purpose for which it was designed, communicate without disturbing other users and thus avoid being blocked for any reason.
Annoying is not well seen, neither on WhatsApp, nor on Mark Zuckerberg's giant social network, so we must be careful with what we do so as not to run out of this service that today seems essential.
How about WhatsApp blocking your account if you receive many blocks? Is this too aggressive a measure?
