Fwiw, Whatsapp is only weakly encrypted. It presumably streams all metadata to the government. Also, if certain sensitive keywords are entered, e.g. pmurt in reverse, that too ostensibly triggers an immediate alert to the government to trigger further monitoring. Whatsapp's backups and notifications have also been well known to be risk vectors. Broadly speaking, most mobile devices and web browsers are extreme risk vectors.

It's the biggest fucking antitrust red flag of all time (ok, maybe not all time. Humans are scummy. I'm sure bigger examples exist in meatspace)
Zuck buys company to steal phone numbers, establish monopoly. Founder says "it's time. Delete Facebook", disgusted by the acquisition
