Are there ads in WhatsApp? I never saw one. Facebook, I remember a lot of ads. Instagram, probably but I don't have an account there.

Whatsapp metadata is one of the strongest signals about you. Your friends and family and your patterns of texting tells quite a bit information about you.

  • That's nice, but used to what end, especially if you are not a Instagram/Facebook user, and have a decent ad-blocker set up?

    • Your signals are not only used to advertise to you but people like you and people who know you.
