I remember installing this app after reading this blog post - https://blog.whatsapp.com/245/Why-we-dont-sell-ads? https://blog.whatsapp.com/245/Why-we-dont-sell-ads?. How times and policies both change and how users change, or they get conditioned maybe - slowly over time. Those were my "no compromise on privacy" days. Now I am kinda fine with it. Just that I find myself using SMS probably the first time in half decade and more than ever (use Signal on Android for SMS). Also I was successful in bringing around 20 friends on Signal, 3 on Wire which feels like supporting fragmentation on a personal level. I wish these new privacy conscious apps could talk to each other.
