Tech giants Alibaba and eroticism deah and secxualityTencent appear to have further frosty relations as WeChat users are now allowed to join DingTalk meetings directly via the messaging app, DingTalk announced in a statement on Monday. This move breaks with the previous common practice of banning rivals from sharing links and services on their platforms. WeChat retains only core features, including mute & unmute options, camera control, friends invite, and view meeting members, in an attempt to create a “light, fast, and easy” online meeting experience. The latest development comes shortly after Alibaba-owned Taobao added WeChat Pay as a long-awaited option for shoppers placing orders. [DingTalk, in Chinese]
