Either way, it's awesome for the world. This kind of attack is great to tell people one more reason why they should not trust Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc

Either way, it's awesome for the world. This kind of attack is great to tell people one more reason why they should not trust Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc. It'd only have been better if someone malicious had done it and made some data public (perhaps slightly redacted). In particular, it might help with Signal vs WhatsApp.
