As a user of the app, I don't care about any of them. As far as I see it - it's perfect. For example - them having my addressbook means that I don't have to set up any contacts. While I wish there was a desktop service, its lack is just that - something I wish existed.
I think a more precise way to describe it is "I disagree with certain technical solutions they chose".

Friends complain about falling victim to Facebook scams all the time but I have never heard a complaint about WhatsApp … I know that such an anecdote is not of much use but WhatsApp seems at least not to have lost the trust of its users so far.
