Comment on WhatsApp users will start seeing in-app ads within ‘Status’ feature from 2020

I would rather pay than see ads and fall prey to all the targeting and data mining. Take my money Facebook, please.

I am assuming that one of the reasons they won't let users pay to opt out of ads might be because paying users are the most valuable for advertisers. They wouldn't let their most valuable target pool out of the advertiser's hands.

That's already happening. Facebook has had a form of Whatsapp ads and targeting available on the ads dashboard for a while now. All the same ad targeting options as any other FB product/ ad placement.
