 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.

VIETNAMESE MAN SETS RECORD WITH FINGERNAILS OVER 19 FEET LONG. (PHOTO)



Vietnamese man sets record with fingernails over 19 feet long

A Vietnamese man has set a Guinness World Record for the longest fingernails on a pair of hands (male), with a combined length of 19 feet 6 inches. Lưu Công Huyền has not cut his nails in 30 years, making them longer than the height of an average adult giraffe.

Huyền explained that his fingernail growth began because of his father, who was a shaman. “I wanted to become a teacher, so I grew them to look more majestic,” he said. Although he eventually gave up his teaching ambitions at his father’s urging, he continued letting his nails grow. Huyền described trimming them as mentally and physically exhausting, saying it would feel uncomfortable to cut them.

Maintaining such long nails requires constant care. Huyền said they must be kept dry, as exposure to water can soften them and cause them to break. In crowded areas, he must be vigilant to prevent accidental damage. Even routine tasks, such as climbing scaffolding for work, require deliberate and careful movements to protect his record-setting nails.
