WhatsApp started rolling new updates to enhance group privacy. This is a context card containing the contextual information of a user that appears to a new group member when someone not in your contact adds you to a group with a shortcut to exit the group from the context card itself.
WhatsApp Context Card features
This context card appears when someone not in your contact adds you to a group. This card contains information about the group containing the name of the user who added you to a group. As you see in the screenshot above this feature reveals the names of the users that show with the symbol (~) when an unknown user sends a message in a a group chat.
The card contains the name of the user who created the group the new member of the group. The name, of course, will depend on what the group’s creator has added to their WhatsApp settings.
Alongside this detail, there is a Safety tools option to report problematic content and the user also sees an Exit group option where they can exit the group.

Conclusion
This is a good initiative to improve group safety when someone adds someone to an unwanted group this would help to quickly identify the unwanted group with this context card. However, back in 2019 WhatsApp already rolled out the privacy setting when users can control who can add them to a group.
