Whatsapp can continue working just fine without this. All you have to do if you want to connect with me on Whatsapp (or anything else) is email me and ask what my account name is, and I either give it to you or I do not. Problem. Fucking. S

No, they didn't. This has been debunked numerous times. The evidence for that is on KF itself. The people who perpetuate this narrative are people actually engaged in harassment against others whose activities are documented on KF usin
