138 ingenious WhatsApp sayings for status and chat
  1. Insulting users
    You are not allowed to insult, threaten or harass other users or to make or share any racist or ethnically offensive statements.
  2. Call for violence
    WhatsApp must not be used to incite violence, illegal or otherwise inappropriate actions. This also applies to sharing content with violent crimes.
  3. Fake news
    The messenger may not be used to spread fake news with intentional untruths, misrepresentations or misleading statements.
  4. Send spam
    WhatsApp users are not allowed to distribute “messages such as mass messages”. The use of “auto messaging” or “auto dialing” is also prohibited. Messages or calls that were previously recorded and automatically sent at a certain point in time are therefore not permitted. There is only an exception if you have WhatsApp approval.
  5. Fake another identity
    WhatsApp does not require real names. Users can only be identified by their telephone number. The name can be freely chosen. Here you are not allowed to pretend to be a different person. Nicknames are allowed, however.
  6. Distribute malware
    Files can also be sent via WhatsApp. Accordingly, you are not allowed to use the messenger to distribute viruses or other malware.
  7. Spy on users
    You are not allowed to spy on users via WhatsApp. No information may be obtained from or about users in an impermissible or unauthorized manner.
  8. Too frequent changing of the mobile phone number
    WhatsApp is tied to a cell phone number. There is no account to which you can log in with a username and password. If you change your mobile phone number too often, WhatsApp can eventually exclude you from the verification process.
  9. Hack WhatsApp or manipulate code
    Anyone who tries to hack the messenger or manipulate the code in any way will be blocked immediately.
