India, Jan. 27 -- Elon Musk and Telegram founder Pavel Durov have weighed in after Meta was sued in the United States over allegations that WhatsApp misled users about the privacy and security of its messages.

Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov took to X, claiming Telegram had earlier analysed WhatsApp's encryption system and identified "multiple attack vectors." He went on to say that anyone who still believes WhatsApp is secure in 2026 is "braindead".

"You'd have to be braindead to believe WhatsApp is secure in 2026. When we analyzed how WhatsApp implemented its "encryption", we found multiple attack vectors," Durov wrote.

Tesla and X owner Elon Musk echoed the criticism, reposting content related to whistleblower allegations again...
