The U.S. House of Representatives has banned the installation and use of WhatsApp on government-issued devices belonging to congressional staff, citing concerns over how the app encrypts and secures data.
The ban covers mobile phones, laptops, desktop computers, and any web browsers used on those devices.
Congressional staff are still free to use WhatsApp on their personal devices, which existing policies dictate are not allowed in sensitive areas such as classified briefings or secure facilities.
The U.S. House of Representatives is one of the two chambers of the United States Congress, responsible for creating laws, approving budgets, and representing the American public through 435 elected representatives.
