Bypass WhatsApp Unofficial App Warning
Because rooting your device mean you're cooking malware in your basement nowadays.

⚠️ THE DRAMA:

"You need the official WhatsApp to login."

Yeah, yeah, whatever...

📱 METHOD 1: TrickyStore
- Install TrickyStore on your root manager
- Reboot
- Edit /data/adb/tricky_store/target.txt and add:
com.whatsapp
- (Optional) Install Tricky-Addon for WebUI
- Optional: Use Valid Keybox from Tricky Add-on
- Clear WhatsApp data/cache

📱 METHOD 2: WaEnchancer
- Install LSPosed on your root manager
- Reboot
- Install WAEnhancer (.apk)
- Enable WAEnhancer in LSPosed
- Reboot
- Open WAEnhancer → enable Bootloader Spoofer
- Optional: Use a Valid Custom Keybox
- Clear Play Store & WhatsApp data
- Reinstall WhatsApp and log in

TROUBLESHOOTING:
- Still showing warnings? Force-close and relaunch WhatsApp
- Persistent issues? You may need basic/device Play Integrity
- Try using a valid keybox, even one that's already revoked
- Clear WhatsApp data again to flush cache

NOTE:
If your ROM is cursed and can't pass BASIC even after spoofing, you've got bigger problems. No module can fake stability. Fix your GMS or flash something sane.

⚡️Scripts and Fingerprinting: The Hidden Trackers
@takebackourtech

JavaScript powers the modern web, making sites dynamic and interactive. But it also enables tracking techniques like browser fingerprinting—where scripts collect unique data about your device to identify and track you, even without cookies.

Big platforms rely on these hidden methods, often using third-party scripts to follow users across the web. In our Web Browsing for Privacy Lovers webinar, we explore ways to reduce exposure to fingerprinting while keeping the web functional.

UK Tribunal Blocks Secret Gov’t Case Against Apple Encryption

A government that demands invisibility in court is one step away from disappearing accountability altogether.

With a necessary reality check, a #UK tribunal has told the government that, no, it cannot hold a secret legal battle against #Apple over #encryption. The Investigatory Powers Tribunal (#IPT), the body meant to oversee the country’s surveillance powers, has dismissed efforts by the Home Office to keep the entire case hidden from public view. And in doing so, it has delivered a quietly important win for press freedom and digital rights. Although, things are far from over.
