Ex-WhatsApp Security Chief Sues Meta Over Neglected Flaws and Culture

A former WhatsApp security head filed a lawsuit against Meta, alleging the company ignored internal security flaws, exposed billions of users to risks, and retaliated against him for reporting these issues. The lawsuit claims Meta failed to implement basic cybersecurity measures, allowed extensive access to user data, and dismissed concerns about hacking and account takeovers, leading to potential violations of regulations and a history of data mishandling. Baig seeks reinstatement, damages, and regulatory action.
