WhatsApp Menace

WhatsApp is a great tool for easy and quick communication with individuals and groups. But this tool is turning out to be a 'nuisance' for many. Any WhatsApp member can add another member to a group without consent. When people add the names of their acquaintances to a group or overload with WhatsApp messages, the receiver could get vexed over it.

There are instances when over-enthusiastic senders frequently transmit large files of audio and video messages to a multitude of people, without thinking whether such messages were of any interest or worth to the receivers. Huge video files are sent without a brief about the contents of the video. If the receiver has not suitably configured the WhatsApp settings, these videos would get downloaded automatically onto the mobile phone. The receiver thus unwittingly pays for the bandwidth used for downloading these videos.
