Nigerians don't care about their online security or privacy.

Whatsapp should continue with their useless policies!

Telegram gains 25 million new users in the last 72 hours — These new users came from across the globe – 38% from Asia, 27% from Europe, 21% from Latin America and 8% from MENA.

Nemere2020:
Here’s a list of data each of the messaging apps collects from their users:

WhatsApp collects information such as device ID, user ID, advertising data, purchase history, coarse location, phone number, email address, contacts, product interaction, crash data, performance data, other diagnostic data, payment info, customer support, product interaction and other user content

While Telegram collects Contact Info, Contacts, and User ID, and Signal only saves your phone number.

When it comes to user privacy, Signal seems to offer the most secured form of communication you can get on the internet

I just dey skip the thing since becos I dont even know what its all about!
Me too... The way Nigerians talk about privacy as if they are relevant to the world. That oyibo woman finish Nigerians wella. The current Nigerian does not add any value to the world. Our privacy dont matter, in fact Facebook is broadcasting this because, of some other countries not country like Nigeria. They have been taking our data since from different apps, so what is the big deal about whatsapp taking our data too. Let us concentrate on how to develop the country or tear it into pieces for collective development. For now, our privacy dont matter, we dont manufacture anything so we no get choice.

Is this promotion trend for signal?? What type of useless thread is this?? Telegram that's far better than signal you mentioned a few...
All the bad things of Whatsapp you listed them with little or no say on the good ones.

Facebook have been in existence have you ever been compromised or have government come after you??

Very useless thread

Thank u op for my affirmation
Like I once posted
M y take on the whatsapp issue
Actually is due to the info out there about whatapp fully integrated to facebook and facebook will soon start ads placement on what App, thereby monetizing the hell out of what App. Imagine using what app or facebook seeing an ad about a product u just chatted with a friend ( you will be like WTF) that seo / algorithm to the core.. That tells u that the end to end enscription chatting is actually false.now I think the signal app is more better than telegram and it same end to end enscription as what app (this is because what app creator is the part owner and creator of the signal app- Brian acton). and take note the new owners of what app sells your data to the highest bidder( check Cambridge analytical Zuckerberg scandal) in which it was used(or/ discovered) in the voters fraud during trump USA 2016 election.
There are lots I can reveal to u but let me stop here, I hope u grab what I meant as your opinion will be needed shallom
Lots you can reveal with this kind of typing? Hmm
