No. Sorry. They are not “collateral damage” they are human beings who happen to have been born there and live there and most of those human beings are stuck there. Have some compassion, they are Palestinians not buildings or roads or things, they are human beings and so are the hostages whose lives you may also be destroying. They aren’t “collateral damage” either.

Users have full control over their mic settings
Once granted permission, WhatsApp only accesses the mic when a user is making a call or recording a voice note or video - and even then, these communications are protected by end-to-end encryption so WhatsApp cannot hear them

Over the last 24 hours we’ve been in touch with a Twitter engineer who posted an issue with his Pixel phone and WhatsApp.
We believe this is a bug on Android that mis-attributes information in their Privacy Dashboard and have asked Google to investigate and remediate.
WhatsApp has been using the microphone in the background, while I was asleep and since I woke up at 6AM (and that's just a part of the timeline!) What's going on?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
WhatsApp has clarified they believe it to be a bug in Android's Privacy Dashboard (twitter.com/WhatsApp/statu…)

Life happens. And when it happens to your phone, it’s always handy to have the option to enable end-to-end encrypted backup to revive your chat history 💾 #WorldBackupDay

This is a really important article from @DarrenLoucaides @Wired about Telegram. If you think Telegram is secure, you should read this article and understand the truth - especially before you use it for anything private.
Some really important points:
To hear its founder tell it, Telegram was founded precisely to allow users to communicate in ways that skirt authoritarian surveillance.
Yet Russian authorities are wielding it as a powerful weapon against antiwar activists. How? wired.trib.al/8hLXQNo

2022 was our biggest year yet. Our team was so excited to build Communities, Reactions, Polls, Avatars, 32-person video calling and so much more.
A huge thank you to everyone who gave us feedback on how to make @WhatsApp even better. There’s a lot more coming in 2023!

Hard to believe, but it looks real. Every serious press freedom group in the world has protested this. It is an appalling symbol of how far the British and American governments' commitment to human rights has declined.
How can we condemn authoritarian abuses abroad like this?

If I had been in the US for two more years than I actually did, then I wouldn't have been alive to tweet this out.
