- quickthrowman 5y agoYou make a good point about the mass adoption mostly happening before FB took ownership. Back then, Whatsapp was definitely a better choice for a lot of non-US places vs paying for SMS, and perhaps it is even now. iMessage has E2E encryption, but regular SMS doesn’t so WhatsApp seems better in that case as well.
