In a shocking revelation, it has been discovered that a certain messaging app has been used extensively by government officials during the pandemic. Yes, you guessed it right, it’s the app that goes “ding” every time someone sends a message. Oops, we mean the app whose name rhymes with “shmaps”.
Sources close to the matter claim that there have been concerns over the government’s addiction to the app. “I once saw the Prime Minister checking his phone every two seconds during a meeting. Turns out he was just waiting for a reply on ‘shmaps’,” said a baffled aide.
The app’s convenience has convinced officials to use it for all types of government business, including sharing confidential documents and voting on important bills. “Our IT department tried to block ‘shmaps’ several times, but it’s like trying to take away a kid’s candy,” revealed a source from the Department of Health.
It seems like ‘shmaps’ has become a part of the government’s daily routine. “I don’t think they know what to do without it. They even use it to communicate with their spouses during work hours,” chuckled a staffer.
However, not everyone is amused by this news. The opposition has slammed the government for compromising sensitive information by using an unreliable app. “It’s like using a paper plane to send classified documents. It’s downright foolish,” criticized a member of Parliament.
All we can hope for is that the government learns its lesson and switches to a more secure form of communication. Until then, we can only shake our heads and say, “ding”!
