WhatsApp chats are end-to-end encrypted, so how do Bollywood celebrities’ chats get leaked again and again?

Facebook says that its proprietary instant messaging platform WhatsApp whose chats are end-to-end encrypted. This means that except the sender and receiver of the message, no one can read that message, not even WhatsApp itself can read the message of a user. But I don’t understand how the chat gets leaked again and again in Bollywood, if the chat is safe. Now the news of Aryan Khan and Ananya Pandey’s chat leak has also come.

In 2020, WhatsApp chats related to actress Rhea Chakraborty were circulated across the internet. Then we saw that Deepika Padukone went to the NCB office after a conversation with an alleged drug dealer. And now the name of Bollywood actress Ananya Panday has also joined the list, who was allegedly summoned by the NCB in front of the authorities after a conversation with Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan.

Due to this, now users do not understand how chats get leaked if WhatsApp chats are end-to-end encrypted.

Is WhatsApp really end-to-end encrypted?

WhatsApp has always maintained that messages from all users on their platform are end-to-end encrypted. This means that no third person can access those chats.

“WhatsApp has no ability to view messages or listen to calls that are encrypted end-to-end. This is because the encryption and decryption of messages sent and received on WhatsApp took place entirely on your device. To ensure that a message leaves your device, it is protected with a cryptographic lock, and only the receiver has keys. Plus, the keys change with each message that is sent, WhatsApp said.

How to access chats after WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption?

So let us tell you that it is not possible to break end-to-end encrypted data. In most of the cases the truth is that data is not broken but it is accessed. That is, unlock your phone for access and give it to me, this happens because the law is different in India but in foreign countries like America or other European countries, the police have to show a warrant first if any mobile phone or computer has to take data Is.

For this reason it may happen that the user is asked to unlock once and from there the entire chat is taken by screenshot or copy.

Also, it may be that the forensic team somehow takes the chat.

Apart from this, the forensic team also clones the data, something like this can happen, but it is not confirmed.
