Wait,..you thought that when Facebook bought WhatsApp that it wouldn’t slowly but surely wrap it all up into one product?

Since the day FB bought WhatsApp, it’s been breaking the rules of the agreements made when the acquisition went down.

There should be a massive movement and a call to forcibly break WhatsApp off from Meta again and maintain strict boundaries between the companies.

Honestly wouldn't mind using it if it fully broke off and just charged 2-5 bucks a year to use.

Or a movement to get people off whatsapp and into signal.
