Or is this just temporary hype? In this video, Dhea breaks down: ✅ Why Arattai is suddenly trending #1 ✅ Its features vs WhatsApp ✅ The privacy promise that’s winning downloads ✅ The hurdles it still faces before becoming India’s #1 chat app 📲 Will you stick with WhatsApp, or give Arattai a shot?

WhatsApp is working on a feature to share spoiler messages! The demo video is OUT! WhatsApp will make it easier for users to send messages that can hide sensitive content behind a blurred layer. The video shows the new formatting tool that will allow users to hide selected text as spoiler content before sending a message. Recipients would be able to tap the message to reveal the text. This would help people share messages without immediately exposing the details. The feature will also reduce accidental spoilers in group chats where not everyone wants to see the same information at the same time. It will be compatible with text messages and media captions. In the future, it may support photo and video content as well. The feature is under testing, and it will be available to beta testers soon.

🚨 Flare is building around a very different vision for $XRP. Flare ☀️ is focusing on helping $XRP move across ecosystems, interact with protocols, and return back to XRPL without users dealing with the complexity underneath. Hugo Philion also highlighted how FXRP stands out through smart accounts, direct minting through exchanges and custodians, and data protocols that enable functionality other bridges cannot offer. 👉 FXRP can interact across multiple chains 👉 Assets can move without users touching those blockchains directly 👉 Flare data protocols enable cross-chain functionality others cannot offer 👉 Smart accounts simplify complex blockchain interactions One of the more interesting parts is that Flare is trying to remove the friction behind cross-chain usage instead of forcing users to manually navigate multiple ecosystems themselves. That opens the door for $XRP to access liquidity, applications, and utility across multiple blockchain environments in a much more seamless way.

We applaud Governor Hochul for calling for strong, consistent online safety protections in New York and for outlining sensible priorities for legislation. Several of the Governor’s priorities, including default-off settings for minors and parental controls, are safeguards we have already implemented on Roblox. Another, advanced age verification, is currently being rolled out globally. Estimating the age of users who want to communicate on Roblox helps limit kids to chatting with other kids, not unknown adults by default. We also go further in key areas of online safety. For example, we do not allow users to send each other images or videos on our platform. This work is ongoing, and we know no system is perfect, so we continue to strengthen protections to help keep users safe, as well as working to educate parents about online safety. While the legislative process is just beginning in New York, we are supportive of the Governor’s online safety initiative and the priorities she has outlined. We look forward to reviewing the details of the proposal and working collaboratively on these efforts to make the digital world safer for children.

(Early) review of ChatGPT’s Group Chats - it’s exactly what it sounds like (no more, no less!) You can add other people into convos with ChatGPT, with a few useful settings: - Link to join or manual invites - Custom group instructions - Memory that is only persistent in-Chat (and it doesn’t borrow from personal Memory) - Tagging and ability to tell ChatGPT to auto-respond or wait The fact that this is embedded inside ChatGPT instead of a standalone app says to me it’s intended less as a WhatsApp replacement and more for task or project-specific use cases.

Yesterday, we traveled to one of the main detention centers in Mariona, El Salvador, but unsurprisingly, access was denied. A prison guard confirmed that nobody has been allowed to enter any of the detention centers, not even family members. They also confirmed that detainees are not allowed to make sporadic phone calls to their family members. We also met with victims of human rights abuses, including several men who were detained for over a year under the exception regime, and who still have other family members inside the prisons. They were fishermen, peasants, ordinary and hardworking individuals who were taken by the police and thrown in prison without any proper hearings, access to their lawyers or their families, and who shared with us the torture and inhumane conditions they suffered and witnessed in the different detention centers they were held in. While we formally requested access to CECOT, where ten of our Venezuelan clients are detained, and to the Centro Industrial Penitenciario in Santa Ana, where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is detained, the Salvadorian authorities have not responded to our requests.

We just received a bounty reward from UniFi for reporting a vulnerability affecting UniFi OS devices. As part of the Hakai Labs (Hakai Offsec) research team at QuimeraX Intelligence, we independently identified a Path Traversal vulnerability (CVE-2026-34911) that allowed an attacker with network access to access internal routes on the underlying system without a valid token, exposing a sensitive information. Our research was conducted independently, but the vulnerability we reported could be chained with other vulnerabilities disclosed during the same period, including Improper Access Control and Command Injection flaws reported by other researchers. When combined, these issues lead to a pre-auth RCE affecting multiple UniFi OS products. Affected products include UDM, UDM-Pro, UDM-SE, UDM-Pro-Max, EFG, UDW, UDR, UDR7, Express 7, UNVR, UNVR-Pro, UNVR-Instant, ENVR, UCG-Ultra, UCG-Max, UCG-Fiber, and several other UniFi OS devices. We strongly recommend updating affected systems to the latest available version. Technical details remain under coordinated disclosure, and the only public information currently available is UniFi’s Security Advisory Bulletin.

#WATCH | Washington DC | Senior Advisor at CSIS, Richard Rossow, says, "It looks like both sides have agreed for the US to get better market access into India, including dropping non-tariff barriers, as President Trump mentioned, and also removing most of the tariffs that the US had placed on India... What we don’t know is what other things were included. There’s also the agreement that India will buy $500 billion worth of American goods, but we don’t know the details of that or the time frame..." On Indian purchase of Russian oil, he says, "The previous times the US pressured India about where it was buying hydrocarbons, most notably from Venezuela and Iran, India complied when the US presented a real threat... From India’s perspective, the US is by far its most important export market in both goods and services... India got tariffs reduced in exchange for market access, which India has done with other trade partners. It’s a deal both leaders thought was worth finalising..."

There are indications that Innbucks is in the process of testing a Visa Card, with certain individuals having early access. While this is a natural and positive progression, we believe its arrival won't be earth-shattering, despite claims from some early cardholders. Currently, there are several cards available for making international payments, including the Omari and Ecocash virtual and physical cards. Most people only have a couple of subscriptions per month, often totaling less than US$50. Therefore, any cost savings from the Innbucks card are unlikely to be significant compared to what's already on the market. The main advantage of the Innbucks card will be that users won't need to transfer funds to another wallet, providing an additional backup card to use. We would be glad to be proven wrong, but we expect this to be just another card with features similar to existing options.

Possibly the biggest change in Microsoft Teams history? Teams without the Teams? Public preview in November to desktop, mobile, iOS, and Android. Here is what you need to know: 🟣 Microsoft is introducing a new combined chat and channels experience. Meaning chat and teams/channels will show up under the "Chat" sidebar icon. No more dedicated Teams sidebar button. 🟣 Teams and Channels will have their own section in chat. 🟣 Group your chats and/or channels however best works for you with favourites and custom sections (up to 50 sections and 50 items per section) 🟣 “Unread,” “Chat,” “Channels,” “Meetings,” and “Muted” Filters 🟣 New message can initiate a new chat or new channel post 🟣 New Mention view gathers all your mentions into a single interactive list. 🟣 At launch, a self-service, guided onboarding will help users discover the new experience and configure it to their preferences (on or off) 🟣 Users who prefer to keep chat and channels separate can easily do so during the onboarding process or at any time later. So far, it looks like there are no IT/tenant-level override controls. This experience change is targeted at getting more users using teams/channels. Most Teams users live in "chats", not teams/channels. There will undoubtedly be some pushback from users who use teams/channels well and like having the mental separation of teams/channels vs chats. I've been fortunate to be using it for a while, and I'm personally a big fan; my use of the correct channels has gone way up, and now I can find them all in one place in the app, particularly on mobile. I'm now much more likely to see channel conversations I need to see. What do you think? #MicrosoftTeams #Microsoft365

**WARNING: SCAM ALERT!** In our digital age, losing access to our WhatsApp accounts can be a nightmare. Last month, a relative received a message from a friend asking for a code sent to her by mistake. Without any suspicion or doubt in their friendship, she shared the code that came on text. And guess what? She was logged out of her WhatsApp account, and the scammer was texting her contacts pretending to be her. They were asking for money or codes to also hijack their WhatsApp accounts. It’s even worse when this happens when you’re boarding a flight and you are in a hurry. The scammer had changed group settings where she was an admin and even changed the backup email ID so we couldn’t log back in. The folks at Meta were super helpful and restored her access. So, what is this scam, how does it work, and why do we fall for it? Well, the good folks at Saksham Senior have put together a video to explain it all. Share it with your parents, family, friends, and anyone who could benefit from this. This one’s in English, but I’ve also included a Hindi video in my reply.

How did a tiny team of 30 engineers build WhatsApp, more than a decade ago? From Jean Lee, engineer #19 at the company. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:39 Early years in tech 06:18 Becoming engineer #19 at WhatsApp 13:53 WhatsApp’s tech stack 18:09 WhatsApp’s unique ways of working 25:27 Countdown displays and outages 27:07 Why WhatsApp won 28:53 The Facebook acquisition 33:13 Life after acquisition 39:27 Working at Facebook in London 44:07 Transitioning to management 47:27 Performance reviews as a manager 53:29 After Facebook 58:53 AI’s impact on engineering 1:02:34 Jean’s advice to new grads and startups 1:06:45 Empowering employees 1:08:17 Book recommendations Watch or listen: • YouTube: • Spotify: • Apple: Brought to you by: • Statsig – ⁠ The unified platform for flags, analytics, experiments, and more. • Sonar – The makers of SonarQube, the industry standard for automated code review. • WorkOS – Everything you need to make your app enterprise ready Three interesting observations from this episode: 1. WhatsApp had no code reviews after in-place. WhatsApp cofounder, Brian Acton, reviewed the very first pull request of each new hire, and after that, there were no more code reviews. Jean recounts how Brian reviewed her debut PR in extreme detail. This first (and only!) review set the bar high, and she wrote code to that standard from then on. 2. WhatsApp had close to zero formal processes. WhatsApp had no Scrum, no Agile, no TDD (test driven development), and no formal code reviews beyond the first commit. In contrast, Skype had 1,000 engineers and mandatory Scrum training, but WhatsApp still outcompeted it and won. Jean’s response to hearing of all the formal processes Skype used in order to execute faster: “I’m surprised to hear they thought they were shipping faster because of it.” Perhaps process is often a substitute for trust, not quality?” 3. Saying “no” to features was a competitive advantage. WhatsApp’s CEO, Jan Koum, rejected 99% of feature requests from the team. While competitors shipped dozens of shiny, new features, WhatsApp ruthlessly prioritized reliability and simplicity.

Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:39 Early years in tech 06:18 Becoming engineer #19 at WhatsApp 13:53 WhatsApp’s tech stack 18:09 WhatsApp’s unique ways of working 25:27 Countdown displays and outages 27:07 Why WhatsApp won 28:53 The Facebook acquisition 33:13 Life after acquisition 39:27 Working at Facebook in London 44:07 Transitioning to management 47:27 Performance reviews as a manager 53:29 After Facebook 58:53 AI’s impact on engineering 1:02:34 Jean’s advice to new grads and startups 1:06:45 Empowering employees 1:08:17 Book recommendations Watch or listen: • YouTube: • Spotify: • Apple: Brought to you by: • Statsig – ⁠ The unified platform for flags, analytics, experiments, and more. • Sonar – The makers of SonarQube, the industry standard for automated code review. • WorkOS – Everything you need to make your app enterprise ready Three interesting observations from this episode: 1. WhatsApp had no code reviews after in-place. WhatsApp cofounder, Brian Acton, reviewed the very first pull request of each new hire, and after that, there were no more code reviews. Jean recounts how Brian reviewed her debut PR in extreme detail. This first (and only!) review set the bar high, and she wrote code to that standard from then on. 2. WhatsApp had close to zero formal processes. WhatsApp had no Scrum, no Agile, no TDD (test driven development), and no formal code reviews beyond the first commit. In contrast, Skype had 1,000 engineers and mandatory Scrum training, but WhatsApp still outcompeted it and won. Jean’s response to hearing of all the formal processes Skype used in order to execute faster: “I’m surprised to hear they thought they were shipping faster because of it.” Perhaps process is often a substitute for trust, not quality?” 3. Saying “no” to features was a competitive advantage. WhatsApp’s CEO, Jan Koum, rejected 99% of feature requests from the team. While competitors shipped dozens of shiny, new features, WhatsApp ruthlessly prioritized reliability and simplicity. Jan repeatedly told the team what the mission was. “I want a grandma living in the countryside to be able to use our app”, he said.

TUES-DAY REVIEW Harare Mayor Jacob Mafume: "Power changes your perspective." Mafume says it is easy to accuse government officials of enjoying flashy cars and expensive houses when you are on the outside. But once you are in office, you realise those vehicles, offices and residences are important for carrying out official duties. If you were given a government position tomorrow, would your views on official perks change or would you still reject them? Follow 263chat whatsapp channel on:
