First of all non of the apps should have the right to collect our contacts. Because we have no right to share another persons contact details without their permission.
These apps are just stealing information.

Whatsapp and Facebook are very much aware that many such websites and app were born, had huge success then fell apart. And if they make such stupid mistake, some other will take this opportunity and make another social website. Whatsapp like apps already exist and are much better. I like Telegram, so many options,features, gif, emojis, stickers, tagging, pinning, self-chat, notification, desktop app, and I love the bots too.

jrmhjhn, 28 Aug 2016forget whatssap, get telegram problem solve!!!I agree. I've been using Telegram from last year. Great messaging app, native password and had an encrypted setup LONG before whatsapp did. I haven't used facebook since May and have decide ro not do so until maybe some time next year. Just can't be bothered. I wish they would stop all this. If i need to find something, I'll find it, if I'm to know something, eventually I'll know. Just stop forcing your ads and whatever other invasive crap you have on us.
