Not sure yet, but every weekend they do a "town hall" where the two founders are pretty open about their thinking about the future of the product, and invite users to discuss it.
I get the impression from hearing them that they'll be incredibly thoughtful about monetization.
- Nextgrid 6y agoWhatsApp's founders were also "thoughtful", going as far as making Facebook promise to not do bad things with it (though we all know how this went). This "thoughtfulness" is meaningless in the best of worlds when money (and duties regarding their investors/shareholders) is involved but even more so when it comes from some Silicon Valley tech-bros that would be the first to jump on the opportunity to sell out to Facebook or its future equivalent (remember that FB's reputation wasn't as bad when the WhatsApp takeover occurred).
