 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026. Unlike WhatsApp, Instagram never offered encryption to all users or as a default; only select users in certain regions could opt in on a per-chat basis. A Meta spokesperson explained that the decision comes due to low adoption. “Very few people were opting in to end-to-end encrypted messaging in DMs, so we’re removing this option from Instagram in the coming months,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who wants to keep messaging with end-to-end encryption can easily do that on WhatsApp.” Meta’s messaging strategy has shifted multiple times over the years.

PRES. PAUL BIYA CELEBRATES 42 YEARS IN POWER TODAY, NOVEMBER 6 IN CAMEROON. (PHOTO).


 President Paul Biya Celebrates 42 Years in Power Today, November 6✊🇨🇲👑


Paul Biya, now 91, has been president of Cameroon for 42 years, making him the world’s longest-serving leader. His rule, which started on November 6, 1982, has experienced a firm grip on power, backed by loyal officials in key roles. Originally a prime minister, he became Cameroon’s second head of state after independence from France in 1960.


Over the years, he has been nicknamed “Popol” and “The Sphinx” for his elusive, strategic style. Despite economic challenges and social issues, he has maintained control with allies in top positions, from the National Assembly to the military.


In 2018, he won a seventh term, though the election faced criticism for low turnout and accusations of fraud. Opposition figures like Maurice Kamto, who contested the results, faced imprisonment. 


Cameroon’s Anglophone regions have also seen turmoil. Calls for more regional autonomy turned into a movement for independence, leading to violent clashes that have displaced over a million people.


Paul Biya rarely appears in public, preferring carefully edited TV addresses. He often travels abroad, with reports revealing millions spent on overseas trips. His personal life is also noted for his marriage to Chantal Biya, known for her striking hairstyles, nearly 40 years his junior.


However, despite numerous controversy, Biya remains in power, navigating a complex political landscape with little visible change.


Rumours say he has plans for the next presidential elections which will take place in 2025.
