For those using Whats App

2 days ago Whats App ( now owned by facebook ) updated their TOS. I think they did by saying if you continue use the update will be in effect.
Well, what I noticed is that my pictures from I believe all the way back from Win XP are now available . If true, this is not good.
Also Line is another app that is strange about getting all your pictures.
Years ago, when we bought our first computer Win XP, the sales person said this: there is no privacy no more, be careful you don't ever use your real name on the net
Well, there is a lot of truth to that. But unfortunately we find out all too late.
I kept one of these phones that you had to buy a time card for, it was maybe 7 years ago. I still have it. I wonder if its still good if and when I go back to the states. Here, people were using this type of phone for criminal activity also. I don't see it available here, but they may exist.

We, those of us that use Apps are now in a spider web of you can't get out of anything anymore. Life is changing too fast . Us older ones won't be around to really see the consequences of this tech, but China and I believe Malaysia is years ahead of the USA on spying on its citizens.

Also beware in the future when traveling overseas that your phone number you give for an emergency , well, I wouldn't give a real number, but if its not real, the airline stewardess will be aware of it.

No escaping of telling lies unless you are in the " Club ".

Where are you seeing these pictures?

I'm deleting WhatsApp and going to try some alternatives. My Android will be in the bin next.

When you updated the Android, apparently it took in pictures on google drive ( ? ) or on the camera itself on the take picture.

Either way, some old pictures showed up and I have no idea how they got there and I haven't checked out FB yet.

Hope that helps.

I think its tricky for me to explain since they ( pictures ) just showed up out of nowhere.

For those people that would like to experience the OP in English... please see below :

You'll lose acess to WhatsApp after 8 Feb, unless you agree to Facebook data sharing
