To be hailed as one of the biggest tech buyouts this year @19 Bln USD, personally it is too early to judge i'd say. Since we have learned from the past about FB, yes, privacy, messages, online behavioural pattern etc. is at stakes for various marketing and advertisement purposes as they claim. What kept WHATSAPP different was the way they said no to "ADS', which earned them plenty of loyal customers. After this buyout, if FB should incorporate ADS into WHATSAPP, then fear is that users might find themselves surrounded with apps to monitor their behavior, which might affect their privacy and whatsapp might lose many loyal users such as ME, to others like SNAPCHAT or VIBER. On one side, this move is crucial to the survival of FB, on the other hand, this life saver move would depend on how they handle the WHATSAPP culture. Thank you FIDA. GREAT QUESTION:)
With1 billion whassup subscriber combined with the Facebook billions it widens global communication. Privacy is determined by the individual when they choose to subscribe.
A great and current question Fida!
With Facebook having bitter experiences with message privacy concerns in the past, I don't think they will repeat the same mistake again. Contextual ads market is a multi billion dollar industry and I strongly believe that FB is going down the same track of advertisements. Nothing is free for a consumer, if he/she is not paying dollars then his/her personal information (browsing and shopping behaviour, demographics, information on likes/dislikes) is surely at stake. But this information is not made public, rather this is presented to advertisers in aggregate form for better targeting reasons. Thanks for the invite.
Nooops i dont think so.
I do not think, this is repeated in many companies, has purchased the Microsoft Corporation .. ٍSkype , any differences did not happen, but some of the gaps that the new play by hackers
I don't think so,what l feel is that the direction of whatsapp development as an entity and as a social network will be compromised.The ones who brought it into existence had a vision and facebook"s take over may compromise on that initial vision.I would as well on second thoughts see a possibility of messages being compromised.....facebook's privacy policies on messages and updates is terribly compromised and laxed.
impossiable
First, thank you for this question, it is more wonderful Secondly, we can not rule early on this matter, but my personal belief that it considers all programs used for private purposes serve the interests of certain objective observation of what is happening all around us
It may be a good move, however we must be careful when businesses to look like monopolies.
Thank you for addressing this question to me. In my opinion the application will become more popular as the visibility will increase with this strategic alignment. There may be some cost restructuring perhaps Whatsup may become a bit cheaper and many more features as you find with Viber & WeChat may get added. This amalgamation should be good for the users.
I think this is a good. If life time free gave this service.
