Meta has announced that WhatsApp will be introducing usernames to keep your phone numbers private. I was on @bbcradiowales this morning chatting to Catrin Heledd and Chris Wathan about how this will work and why it's a good idea.

Listen here from 01:43:00 onwards 🎧:
http://bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002y7s0

Key things to note:

📌 The tech for this is not new, it's already been on privacy-focused communication apps Telegram and Signal for years.

📌 WhatsApp's internal servers will know who you are and your phone number is associated with your smartphone, but outwardly your username will need to be typed in exactly in order to contact you.

📌 You could choose to have a username that matches your other social media profiles, but then that definitely poses a risk in random people contacting you, such as unwanted admirers if you're an Instagram / TikTok influencer.

📌 There are huge amounts of scams that perpetuate using WhatsApp today, from "dad I lost my phone can you send me money to pay this bill?" to romance scams, fake job scams and phishing attempts to get your 6-digit OTC authentication pin so scammers can take over your WhatsApp account and impersonate you to scam your contacts.

📌 If the under-16s social media ban goes ahead, there is concern that young people who make friends online in other countries will be forced to use WhatsApp to message their friends and risk giving their phone numbers to random strangers, so this could be a solution to that problem.

📌It's a good move but as far as I'm concerned, it's like closing the paddock gate once the horses, the cows, the sheep and the pigs have all run out and are miles away.
