What we watch for — WhatsApp's content is end-to-end encrypted, which keeps it out of Chat Control's scope. We watch for weakened encryption claims, client-side scanning language, or new qualifiers around E2EE in these documents.
Status in this archive: End-to-end encrypted — out of scope since 26 Jul 2026 — no status changes recorded.

text is the extracted record we hash and diff; raw is the page's original HTML kept verbatim as evidence — it renders without its styling here, by design.
