  In the usual the current iteration of our product will stay ad-free, but we'll release a new version later and everyone will have to switch to it way.

  Yeah yeah yeah. Heard this one before. Acquired company says it's business as usual, nothing will change, and then 6 months later things slowly begin to change and then after the vesting period of the acquisition finishes, and the newly minted sail off into the sunset, it all goes to hell.

  Of course! Facebook is not interested in putting ads in WhatsApp streams. It shall instead take our data to advertisers. The easy way.
