WhatsApp gives users an ultimatum: Share data with Facebook or stop using the app

[Sterling Archer]

What is the point of WhatsApp?

What can you do there that you can’t do from your phone?

My international hoes all on Whatsapp

 

[WOLF2007]

Yeah i have family groups in sierra leone and london. Plus friend chat groups from folk all over the world.

Apple could block the app and force them to change it since they’re removing functionality for rejecting an option

Whatsapp was the best texting app period. The day Facebook bought it was a dark day

I've had what's app so long I paid for it originally

Ok. But, brehs are actually learning shyt and making money from jumping in Telegram groups.

Signal is limited to the people you know.

Only thing that makes it better is that is collects less data.

But, you're basically only chatting with people you already know.

Meanwhile, Coli brehs are on Telegram, hopping in various stock & crypto chats, learning and making money.

Telegram is basically Clubhouse without the posturing and nikkas shouting. But, it does have a new chat feature that can rival Clubhouse:

Voice Chats Done Right

Then Telegram isn't a WhatsApp analogue, or am I missing something?

I don't have facebook but instagram and whatsapp

i stay getting personalized insta ads and there is no way facebook is getting that data off my phone... it has to be from my desktop browser n I don't use any facebook products on my desktop. shyt is really intrusive and creepy.

Do you use your phone and laptop ever on the same network?

Also apps check for other apps on your local network. Apple added an explicit permission for this in iOS14.

"You’ll see a dialog saying an app “would like to find and connect to devices on your local network” while using many apps. You only have two options: “Don’t Allow” or “OK.”"

"Prior to Apple introducing this prompt, iPhone or iPad apps could do this in the background without your permission. The scanning isn’t new—the only thing new here is the prompt."

Get rid of everything to do with Facebook. You don't need them.

Like they don’t already have access to the info

At its core, it is. But, you cannot search random groups to join in WhatApp like you can with Telegram.

So, Telegram can do with WhatsApp does, but WhatsApp cannot do all the things Telegram can.
