WhatsApp has become one of the main methods of communication between people who are not nearby. The popular instant messaging service has more than 1.2 billion active users who use their chats to hold live conversations, send and receive files such as photos, videos and other documents or exchange audio files among many other features..

It is true that in addition to the individual chats that are private and only between two contacts the group chats are very popular in WhatsApp since they allow live communication to all the members of the group. Now from WhatsApp they want to go one step further with the creation of information channels, which arise from the WhatsApp group chats with the difference that in this case the only person with permission to speak for this group is the Administrator of the group. This gives WhatsApp an interesting functionality hitherto unknown to the application such as the Information Channel, functionality with which other instant messaging services such as Telegram already had.
