"Here's what someone who has never created a private messenger thinks about Whatsapp's privacy."

Why would anyone care about what he has to say? ๐Ÿ’€

I'm confused regarding why you don't consider telegram a private messenger.

Never has been, no default e2ee, and those exploits that leaked a ton of users locations.

Not to mention, no messenger is verifiably private unless it is fully open source.
