ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey’s competition watchdog says it was told by WhatsApp that the chat app won’t apply a controversial privacy update following an investigation. But the announcement was contradicted by the Facebook-owned app, which said it still plans to roll out the update for Turkish users. It’s a fresh sign of the confusion between regulators and the tech company over the update to WhatsApp’s terms of service and privacy rules, which has raised concerns that users are being forced to agree to share more of their data with Facebook. The changes were initially announced at the start of the year but delayed until May 15.
