It's the only Messaging System out there with end to end encryption
LOL. You must be new to secure messaging. Some alternatives WITHOUT snooping your address book:
- Threema
- Telegram
- Signal
- iMessage
I have all four installed (you can't tell a client to change their favourite, although we refuse to use WhatsApp - they usually then go for Telegram). There are couple more esoteric ones out there too like CryptoCat but they're harder to verify. We mainly use iMessage to start up remote Mac sessions.
and it contains ZERO ads
Oh dear. If you get something for free, it simply means you're paying with something else, although I must note that Telegram is a bit of a special case re. operating capital. There's nothing more wonderful than a billionaire happily funding your outfit just to piss someone off :).
