It is not something new that WhatsApp is updating its terms of service and privacy policy. A majority of software services conduct regular updates on their services occasionally. With every new update, it is common practice that users agree to all the new conditions and policies to continue using these services. With the new WhatsApp update, the company is giving users a deadline of February 8, 2021 to accept the new policy.
If users do not accept the policies, WhatsApp holds the right to delete your account. WhatsApp started trending on Twitter very quickly once users reported getting the message about its changed policies.
