            The only update I need from WhatsApp now is international verification. I've been outside of india for 11 months now and can't change my WhatsApp to another phone.

              Without any ID verification it'll probably just as effective as the "I'm 18 years or older" button on certain other services.

                Whatsapp doesn't ask for age when making an account, so how will they know?
