Yup. Before WhatsApp was bought by facebook they just charged people. This was fine and seemed fair. Same with 'pro features' or such. The crypto scheme however does not seem like a fair deal. It looks like monetizing through a backdoor under false pretenses. Exploiting the unsavvy rather than dealing in good faith. This is especially bad as signal was 'the app we trust' for many of us.
