Domingo Trassens @trassens #WR: Can you trust in WeChat? @WSJ says that “WeChat, the Chinese do-everything app with more than one billion users world-wide is subjecting its international users to surveillance to bolster the censorship machinery it employs to control users inside China.”. #China #surveillance
The risks of the violation of your privacy in the social media apps is growing in the way, the technology gives tool to the owners of these apps to control everything of everybody.
The analysis of how the Chinese WeChat app works shows us that social media helps not only to the sellers of products and services. It is also a great tool for the totalitarian regimes to control their citizens and non-citizens across the Internet world.
