FORMER WHATSAPP SECURITY BOSS IN LAWSUIT LIKENS META'S CULTURE TO A “CULT”

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Meta's ex-WhatsApp security chief, Attaullah Baig, has sued back, claiming the company ignored and concealed major privacy flaws, allowed over 1,500 engineers uncontrolled data access, and failed to secure and track user data. He asserts Meta retaliated against him for whistleblowing, while Meta counters that he performed poorly and misrepresented ongoing efforts to improve security.
