So you’re saying that the only way a messaging app can work is to access all the information from all your contacts? If it doesn’t have all that information, it can’t work? If Whatsapp can’t have all that information, it would be impossible to function?
No, it’s fully possible to have its own account and log in system, but that adds a layer of abstraction that makes it harder to sell to people as a replacement for their inbuilt messaging apps which just require a phone number.
If you give Facebook any benefit of the doubt in relation to privacy concerns, I guess I can only believe Zuckerberg to be correct.
