Forget channels, WhatsApp itself is trash. No point talking about trashy additions to a trashy spy product.

I just wish that people who know this, yet deliberately continue to use it, find the courage one day and say FU to Zuckerberg, and switch to alternatives.

I know, I know, it’s not really feasible (or some other excuse) to ditch WhatsApp in countries like Brazil and India, but I don’t belive it’s a completely impossible task either.

I’d switch to alternatives any day but unfortunately that would require these people to also switch:

  • family
  • friends
  • university course-mates
  • traineeship tutors
  • residents of the residence I am a representative for
  • the hardest one of all: your mother

Yeah, My family and friends all switched, but your mother is still adamant to using anything but WhatsApp
