You can never forward a message via WhatsApp again

Copy-pasting and quickly forwarding some messages to your friends, colleagues, or family will no longer be possible in the future. No. Soon everyone will know exactly what you have copied and what you did not write yourself.

Users can still forward messages without any shame by touching a received line of text and clicking ‘forward’. The recipient won't notice anything. They just receive a message and think it’s from you. But not for long. Thanks to the new update that will soon roll out worldwide, everyone will see whether it is a forwarded text. It will simply be LOEIgroot at the top of your message: ‘forwarded’. No denying it. In short: these are not your own words. Everyone will know that.

Life will never be the same again. No more secretly quickly sending something from friend to friend or sending the same message to six friends because you don't have the time/energy to type a story every time. There you go. You will have to make time and energy again to personally send something to everyone. Thanks, WhatsApp.
