> This morning, the Guardian published a story with an alarming headline: “WhatsApp backdoor allows snooping on 
> encrypted messages.” If true, this would have massive implications for the security and privacy of WhatsApp’s 
> one-billion-plus users. Fortunately, there’s no backdoor in WhatsApp, and according to Alec Muffett, an experienced 
> security researcher who spoke to Gizmodo, the Guardian’s story is “major league fuckwittage.”
