Even the largest messaging company in the world such as WhatsApp, these days, risks having to limit the use to all its users due to the excessive use due to the worldwide lockdown. The servers could in fact no longer guarantee the total functioning of the system and crash the application. Event almost similar to other social networks such as Facebook and Instagram that have already taken steps to limit the bitrates of the videos uploaded to the bulletin board. But what does Marck Zuckerberg plan to do this time?
Most likely, according to the recent tweet published by WABetalnfo , the app will limit the sharing of videos by “cutting them off” after only 15 seconds. This measure is already active in India and was decided to reduce traffic on servers. If initially the movies could be made in 90 seconds, and then reduced to just 30 “, in a few days we should be satisfied with just 15 seconds.
This choice could open a range of opportunities to other applications that may not currently enjoy such popularity and that probably do not have network flow problems like other major companies. It remains to be seen whether this new measure will take effect in a few days and whether it will also be extended to major social sites such as Facebook and Instagram.
