While I’m happy that Apple are standing their ground I don’t know of a single person who uses FaceTime or iMessage over WhatsApp here

- disgruntledphd2 3y agoMeta will almost certainly pull out rather than break encryption. The only important part of the UK market for them is the advertising agencies.
- IndySun 3y agoWhere is 'here'? I know several people 'here' that admirably use iMessage exclusively over the equally less private WhatsApp.
- prepend 3y agoSo you don’t know many people, thanks for noting it but not sure how relevant it is to the conversation. It seems a third of users use iMessage [0]. You not knowing one of 20 million people in your country seems more like a curiosity of why your social circle is so similar.

- maest 3y agoYour comment is needlessly snarky and patronising. Your link would have been sufficient.
- prepend 3y agoPerhaps I was too snarky, but I also wanted to help change a perspective that it’s not just important what I experience but to check that against others. I struggle with thinking “I don’t see it, so it must be so” and wish others would point this out more for me. Also, I kind of like snarky as it is closer to authenticity, I think, than always saying “good job, did you think of it this way…”
