    That’s why you encrypt your backups with a chosen passphrase. If you back up your chats unencrypted, that’s your own (weird) choice.

    If you’re using GDrive backups on Android and haven’t set up a passphrase yet, go to the WhatsApp settings and set one. Standard rules about storing passwords securely apply, you’ll lose your data if you forget your passphrase.

      Exactly. I’ve been using the option of encrypted backup for quite some time now.
