## Added support for automatic Double Puppeting for all Mautrix bridges
Double Puppeting can now be easily enabled for all Mautrix bridges supported by the playbook (Facebook, Hangouts, Whatsapp, Telegram).
This is possible due to those bridges' integration with [matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth](https://github.com/devture/matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth) - yet another component that this playbook can install for you.
To get started, following the playbook's documentation for the bridge you'd like to configure.
