According to him, screenshotting certain chats can now instantly notify the other person \u2014 and he suggested users should \u201cthink twice\u201d before doing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the real shock came when he hinted that future updates may include <em>even stricter<\/em> measures to protect private messages, leading many to believe that Facebook may soon treat screenshots as a potential violation of user privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The warning has caused a storm online. Some users are relieved, calling it a long-overdue feature to stop people from saving conversations without consent.
