Harassment and Instant Messaging
It's time to do away with trolls and other disreputable characters who take advantage of instant messaging to spill their hatred. If you are regularly insulted or denigrated know that the WhatsApp mobile application now has a tool to ban and block all the people who annoy you.
The development of social networks has generated as many promises as doubts. Few people realize this, but cyberspace has become the scene of permanent attacks. The harassment is not a practice reserved only for engaged couples turned away..
Today we no longer count the number of Internet users targeted on social networks. Their accounts collect dozens or even hundreds of hateful and insulting messages. They then find themselves isolated and humiliated.
If you are the victim of harassment or if your smartphone freezes under the notifications of a malicious contact, the first thing to do is to block this bad guy. It's simple and radical..
Get rid of unwelcome visitors on WhatsApp
Instant messaging is a wonderful communication tool. However, as with most inventions, use may be positive as well as negative.
On WhatsApp anyone who has your number can contact you. And that is the problem. Because it is not always good to appear in the directories, WhatsApp has implemented a solution to stop bots, trolls and other stalkers.
- Open the WhatsApp application
- Click on the Menu button (3 points) at the top right
- Then select the Settings section, then My account then Privacy and finally Contacts blocked
- Now press the Add button
- Select the name of the person you wish to block from the list
Please note this procedure only works if the number of this unwanted person is already in your address book. If not, don't panic. There is another method for filtering phone calls and messages.
- Launch the WhatsApp app
- Go to the Chat section
- Click on the name of the person who bothers you
- Her messages will open
- Click the Menu button
- select the block this contact option
WhatsApp user blocked, are you protected?
As you can see, blocking a contact on WhatsApp is a relatively simple process. Once this operation is completed, the stalker will not receive any message informing him of this blocking.
He will be unable to call you. These WhatsApp messages will no longer appear on your smartphone. He will no longer be able to view your status changes or even your new profile photos. This should allow you to find a certain serenity.
