WeChat security issues: workaround
Posted: Wed Jan 10, 2024 8:39 pm
I've just contracted for consulting with an Asian company that (it seems) is bonkers about WeChat.
Along with an internal email address they've assigned me a WeChat address.
Frankly am shocked considering the proprietary technical stuff they're working on with wide range of major OEMS that they would even allow that app in their buildings on any devices.
Up to this point I've refused to have WeChat on any of my hardware. So the question is, how to proceed with some modicum of safety for my personal info?
Any ideas? Maybe get a 2nd line? Use a bare bones smart phone that doesn't have any of my other info to ripoff?
