How do they know its a scam account if they aren’t able to read your messages?
My best guess is you have numbers associated with profiles and maybe the numbers get reported as scams through various watchdog orgs or people reporting to Meta directly?
The profiles aren’t encrypted I don’t think?
What’s your best guess at how whatsapp manages to generate AI summaries of your private messages without ever reading the private messages?

Even a cursory attempt at defending these companies is a bad joke.
First, if I were to take a guess I would assume that it can be coded to give the AI read/write access to messages because it’s part of the encryption protocol without giving it to Meta as a company? I really have no idea because I don’t write code or deal with backend stuff so it’s just an idea.
Second, I’m not defending the tech company. I’m coming up with a hypothesis as to why something may be possible. I’m not saying it’s probable.l because we both know that Meta will find any way to gain access to data by doing any sort of shady shit they can.
I found technical details of the private processing in this whitepaper: https://ai.meta.com/static-resource/private-processing-technical-whitepaper
I wish they’d delete my WhatsApp account. I got rid of WhatsApp years ago, when I got rid of everything Facebook-related, but they still tell people that I have WhatsApp. Every so often I get an SMS from them telling me that I’m missing out, and the people who use WhatsApp to contact me are basically being told that I’m ignoring them.
And, yes, I have closed my account and even emailed them asking for this to be sorted, even emailed them demanding my data under GDPR but they didn’t even answer. Why respect my autonomy as a human when they could emotionally blackmail me into compliance?

Tell your countries responsible authority and they will deal with it.
Have you tried been a spambot?
