I’m just gonna say, end to end encryption is jack shit when they can just access the content at the source, analyze it with local rules and call sending to meta how often you talk about a certain topic and with whom telemetry
Or for that matter you could just not properly encrypt it
WhatsApp seems to be something only foreigners and drug dealers use in my experience. What’s the appeal?
You know, when you’re one of those foreigners whose peers all exclusively use WhatsApp, be it child or grandparent, that’s a pretty big appeal. To me, you’re the weird foreigner who doesn’t use WhatsApp ;)
Fair enough, I’m just saying locally no one uses it except really sketchy people who get weird looks when they ask if anyone has it. It’s pretty much either Facebook Messenger or Snapchat around these parts.
Facebook Messenger or Snapchat
…that’s somehow worse than WhatsApp.
I never said that? I don’t even know what it looks like because it’s so uncommon here, lol.
Easy, don’t use Zuckerbot crap
Not easy when all my friends and family use it
And in other parts of the world where it’s just a standard. I was surprised when I saw WhatsApp numbers on advertisements with the WhatsApp logo. Hard not to be on WhatsApp in those places.
