I wonder if this is a wake-up call for Facebook executives re: how completely toxic their brand has become. Every time criticism of Facebook comes up here, a bunch of people handwave it off with “It’s just us HN nerds, 2 billion people don’t care“, but I’m seeing a whole lot of non-tech people fleeing WhatsApp as fast as they can.

(I reinstalled it briefly last year and used it for ome conversation with a stubborn guy who refused to install any of Signal or Telegram.)
