I edited this part, you are definitely right.
slashcrypto··on Why the “WhatsApp-backdoor” is not a WhatsApp-backdoor
I edited the article because I really missed this point, you are right. I thought WhatsApp is not sending the message which got encrypted with the new key. But still, I would not say this is a backdoor, because the user has a relatively easy way to check the keys. If WhatsApp would like to implement a backdoor, they would have done it in a different way I think.

slashcrypto··on Ebay posts every character a user types into the password box
As I said in the Post, it is not a security vulnerability itself, but I want to point out that it can be very dangerous to put a password in a GET request. And the response of ebay is bad too. But thank you for your constructive comment ;)
