Imo video call is not an excuse to banish Whatsapp. I don't know many people, those priorize low quality Whatssapp video chat over awesome apps like Google Duo, FaceTime, Imo, etc. and most important their privacy.

Although today everyone should be warned of them. It was incredible that they even had the sesible data from customers like passwords, addresss, etc, all along years without even a simple encryption, in plain text. To delete them all from the world for the problems and some misfortunes that people have suffered because of their lack of security.

                                Hmm, 12 Jun 2019Delete all you like they still have your data.. end ofIf you don't have any of their apps installed. At least if some of your data is available out there, they'll have to pay for it instead of win money directly from you. And if you are enough carefull to choose what to install private crap companies will not have your data. Only Google from Android and those you are confident to install.

                                So no, at the end you can avoid that they get your data and use it. And in the worse case, at least they'll have to pay for it. But not in the way they want with this shit of Study program. They still have problems with all the laws they infringed in privacy rights of their customers.

                                SO this is a clear try to shut up people. Hopefully customers will see it and refuse their perverse intentions. It's time to use the social networks, their own weapons to torpedo this shit and sink it.

                                    After all the scams and data breaches revolving around Facebook, they still have the nerve to come up with another data harvesting app. How do they keep getting away with such brazen violations of their privacy policies?

                                        I'm proud of Zucker guy, Facbook stole our data for years secretly and now they want to pay us some cents per month to keep our mouthes shut. I wonder if anyone on this planet installs this app.
                                        I don't thank Apple so often but this time "Thank you very much for blocking this data stealing app"
