WhatsApp head confirms ads in the messaging app are still in the works
Would you mind ads in WhatsApp as long as they’re not in your inbox?

"Privacy conscious WhatsApp users" 😂 My sides.
WhatsApp could flip on ads right now, right in the middle of messages and the majority wouldn't switch.
They put ads in I'm switching. People can send me SMS for all I care
There'd be at least some Whatsapp users that chose to use it because it's end-to-end encrypted using Signal Protocol
If you record the screen of somebody typing, it doesn't matter if what they're sending is E2EE.
If any popular messaging apps were recording the screen, it would have been discovered by now. Plenty of people are reverse engineering popular apps all the time.
That came out wrong. It's just a way to say that E2EE doesn't matter if you're in an environment or app that has control over everything until the actual message is encrypted and sent. Closed source apps are to be trusted much less than opensource apps in this regard.
