@aral If Facebook wanted to buy @indie_phone for $19Bn, would you turn it down?

@timmillwood Yes. In a heartbeat. No amount of money is worth not being able to look at yourself in the mirror. +@indie_phone -
@aral it's easy to say that without having to turn off a a few billion bucks first. Let's not jump to uninformed conclusions :D -
@latteine If I had wanted to sell out by now I would have; I’ve had multiple offers in the past and turned each down. -
@aral ok, sorry I didn't mean to be offensive. Was thinking for myself: sure it's bad and unfair, but 19B is 19B :D

@aral@mindcrash considering their revenue and potential growth, $19B investment still doesn't make sense without monetizing user data. -
-
@mindcrash@aral well with 1$ per user per year that's ~1,5B/year considering growth. 13 year investment into a chat app? yeah sure :P -

@mindcrash@aral exactly, but they keep saying that nothing will change for users privacy-wise http://blog.whatsapp.com/index.php/2014/02/facebook/ … -
