Episode Details

WhatsApp just dropped a privacy game-changer: usernames that let you ditch your phone number entirely. Starting this week, you’ll get a notification when your username is ready—head to Settings > Account to claim yours. Use your Instagram or Facebook name, or let the app suggest one. No public directory means no one can easily find you by name, and you can lock messages with a 4-digit code for extra security. Famous handles? Reserved for celebs. Regular folks? Go grab your existing social handle before it’s gone. Privacy just got a whole lot more personal.
