Title: I don&#x27;t usually go in for conspiracy theories, but this one seems pretty clear-cut and I can&#x27;t see anyone else discussing it online: WhatsApp appears to be selectively censoring references to Signal.<p>Specifically, I had changed my profile picture on WhatsApp to the Signal logo and my ‘About’ text to ‘Message me on Signal - https:&#x2F;&#x2F;signal.org&#x2F;download&#x2F;’. However, I noticed recently (after someone happened to open their WhatsApp in front of me and I saw their chat with me) that my WhatsApp contacts are seeing my profile picture and my ‘About’ text as blank. I&#x27;ve checked and this seems to be the case for all of my WhatsApp contacts.<p>See screenshots from me and my friend&#x27;s phones here: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;qvEsswW<p>On the bright side, this serves as an ideal demo for convincing anyone who doesn&#x27;t understand why I am trying to migrate them over to Signal. So, I guess, <i>thanks</i> Meta?
