Sure seems an awfully uncritical fluff-piece for an app that's such a central part of China's dystopian surveillance state. Unknown scores of people have been arrested and detained indefinitely for things they've posted on WeChat. Also, if WeChat's success is due to it's so called "Grand design" thinking and not its history of blatantly copying features from other apps, nor from Chinese protectionism in its home market, why isn't it popular outside of china with anyone other than the Chinese diaspora? Seems if its such an innovative app it should have scores of users in other countries.
