zeynep tufekci added,
In Spain, activist social movements use Telegram instead of WhatsApp with the "owned by Fb" + open source arguments (Signal arrived late)
Yea I'm aware, although I'm reluctant to recommend WhatsApp, and Signal is very far from critical mass, used just by us geeks... What to do?
Signal has gotten much better; WhatsApp is actually recommendable for me since it uses Signal protocol and is widely used.
Even if Fb already has plenty of your data + metadata from WhatsApp? (+ who knows which data analysis it does locally...)
Yes. It's is possible not to give FB your WhatsApp number. Depends on what you are doing of course, but often best available option.
That would be a solution, yep. I think though Fb app already sucked contacts & crossed data, so probably will know your number & friends' :(
Thanks for helping navigate these difficult waters, you made me think, as usual. Plan on visiting @BKCHarvard anytime soon?
Actually there May 10-11. Will post to the list.
