WhatsApp beta 2.19.156 for android might reset your profile name but has improved story status update with added features!


So, Whats new in this WhatsApp beta 2.19.156 ?

When we tested, we found this WhatsApp beta 2.19.156 had reset our profile name. My profile name was completely blank, after update and we need to Enter the profile name again (that Enter your Name section). This build might launch itself even after you force stop the app, when you turn on WiFi network. This build also displays the status views a bit differently. After we post story and when we clicked that story it will display the people who had viewed your status on the right hand side with an eye logo right? that feature was now replaced with the text with an option to forward. We found this feature on WhatsApp beta 2.19.154 but some users said they are not able to view this and now its available for all. You can download WhatsApp beta 2.19.156 for Android right now by signing up for beta program.

The post will be updated as soon as we have more information.

WhatsApp beta 2.19.153 was released for Android beta users. This WhatsApp beta version is the latest version released for Android users.

What's new? As of now, when we checked we can't find new features like QR code for profile pic, and an option to share your story directly to Facebook.

But, the notification for sticker preview is still available on this build. Whenever a message comes, you can see the message in the notification bar, but that wasn't the case for stickers. WhatsApp seems to have worked and enabled this feature on the last build WhatsApp 2.19.152 beta for Android.  So, if you wish to download whats app beta latest version, then i request you to change the decision atleast for now, because this version doesnt have any new features visible to plain eyes.

However, you can still all the features like WhatsApp web on this latest version released for Android.

The post will be updated as soon as we have more information.

Amazon is working on a wrist device that could read your emotions!

Amazon is working on a wrist device that could read your emotions!

Amazon is working on a device that could read human emotions! ya, you read that right. After the big success of Alexa., A-Z Company Amazon, seems to be involved in developing a new wrist device that could read human emotions, Bloomerang reports.



According to the report published on Bloomerang, Bloomerang seems to have obtained the internal documents about this voice activated wrist device that could read your emotions and it will be controlled by Smart phone Application.

So, how this device gonna operate..? Since the device is a voice controlled wrist device (it might look like Wrist watch), it could detect your current mood, through algorithms and will start suggesting you based on your emotions in combination with Alexa.

For example: If you are in romantic mood, it might read your emotions, and as there might be a option to pair with Alexa, Alexa will suddenly ask you, Ok, Shall i play some romantic songs, without you even asking it, that much powerful it might.

Though its good to develop such technology, But in the same time, since data needs to be stored to analyse about the particular person, there might be a huge privacy risk if that particular data falls into wrong hands.

Instagram data breached ! : 49 Million plus user's data reportedly leaked online (Updated) (May 21,2019)


Data breach is happening again and again all over the world every day, not every day we can say every 10 min. Starting from smaller companies to big tech giants like Facebook, Google almost everything. With being already hit by its Co founder Comment, the Facebook is back again on news,  this time because of its Instagram. 

A security researcher named anurag sen, has found nearly 49 Million Instagram users data stored on non password protected AWS Servers. 

This data includes profile pic, bio, followers, phone numbers and honorable user's location too. This data was traced back to chtrbox an advertising based company. This company seems to be have paid instagram influencers to run ad campaigns on their accounts, the tech crunch reported. 



Soon after the news reached the facebook team, the database seems to be pulled offline and Facebook issued a statement that its already investigating the matter..

 "We're looking into the issue to understand if the data described - including email and phone numbers - was from Instagram or from other sources. 
We're also inquiring with Chtrbox to understand where this data came from and how it became publicly available," Instagram quoted to US Media Channels.


Wanna know, whether your data was also exposed? even though it was not that much to find out, all i can say is, if you ran advertising marketing campaign, your account might have been exposed. 

Google mistakenly triggers "new device sign in" notification for lot of #Gmail users

You can ignore the notification message as of now, but makesure you always change the password if you feel something is going wrong.

Iran builts Firewall to fight Stuxnet!

Iran government has announced that it has successfully built and tested the working firewall to block the famous stuxnet worm.

In case, if you don't know about stuxnet..

Stuxnet is a computer programmed virus, said to be jointly built by American and Israel Cyber group. This worm became famous after it attacked the Iran's uranium nuclear site and its program back in 2010. It mainly targets Microsoft Windows based systems with three modules, worm that executes main payload first, a link file that executes copies of the worm,and a rootkit to hide and prevent detection of the stuxnet.


This famous worm was now under control, and was blocked by recently developed firewall as per the recent comment from Iran minister.

Communications Minister, Mohammad Javad Azari-Jahromi says,
“Iran’s university scientists have developed a firewall for industrial automation systems to neutralise industrial sabotage such as that caused by Stuxnet in power networks, and it was successfully tested” 


Though Israel hasn't commented about the remarks made by Iran earlier (that Israel was involved in building the worm) , findings from symantec Corp about another version of Stuxnet back in 2013 says a different story.

You can read more about Stuxnet in this Wikipedia page.

If you are using WhatsApp, then we recommend you to immediately update your WhatsApp version (both iOS and Android) to the latest version, this is because a vulnerability (a bug) has been found by Israeli security firm NSO. This bug which when used will cause your device to be hacked, with just a call on your WhatsApp. The interesting part of it is, whether you attend the phone call from that unknown number or not, a hacker can install spyware (a program that can be used to spy people) apps remotely, without your permission and can read your messages, emails, location, almost everything that you had given WhatsApp to access.


Here is what the description of the bug from Facebook, the company which owns WhatsApp now.

Bug : CVE-2019-3568 
Description: A buffer overflow vulnerability in WhatsApp VOIP stack allowed remote code execution via specially crafted series of SRTCP packets sent to a target phone number. 
Affected Versions: The issue affects WhatsApp for Android prior to v2.19.134, WhatsApp Business for Android prior to v2.19.44, WhatsApp for iOS prior to v2.19.51, WhatsApp Business for iOS prior to v2.19.51, WhatsApp for Windows Phone prior to v2.18.348, and WhatsApp for Tizen prior to v2.18.15.
If you are using earlier versions of WhatsApp, as mentioned above, then kindly update your App to save your privacy.
