WhatsApp won’t break end-to-end encryption in India

Popular messaging service WhatsApp has stated that Indian government’s proposal to force tech companies to hand over encrypted messages is “over-broad” and “not possible”. The Indian government has been asking WhatsApp to share origin of messages in order to track fake news ahead of national elections. However, WhatsApp communication head reiterated that WhatsApp will not break end-to-end encryption.
