As a result of the aforementioned feature, users will be able to link groups to form communities. All those participants of the constituent group will automatically turn in to the members of the community.

The control for setting up and dismantling such community groups will be wielded by the group administrators. Not just expansion, the novel feature would also allow for the administrators to curtail big groups and create sub-groups within those. The messages in these sub-groups will also bear the end-to-end encryption and hence wouldn’t be seen by anyone other than the sender and receiver which will be all the members in the group.
