WhatsApp is rolling out a new feature that will allow users to share frequently forwarded messages to only one chat at a time, in a bid to curb the spread of misinformation and fake news through its platform amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
While the Facebook-owned platform has been battling the menace of spread of fake news through its platform, the introduction of the new feature comes at a time when WhatsApp is being actively used by people to stay connected amid lockdowns globally.
The latest move from WhatsApp comes amid various measures by countries across the world to tackle the spread of rumours and fake news on social media platforms.
