WhatsApp is something millions of us use every day, and of course, it is owned by Meta. Compared to Instagram and Facebook, however, it is surprisingly chill about ads. There has long been talk of adding them to the platform, and while it's looking likely they will arrive sooner rather than later, there is some good news.
Speaking to Brazilian outlet Folha De S.Paulo, Head of WhatsApp Will Cathcart reassured users that their "messaging experience" aka their chats and inboxes, will remain ad-free. This is especially important considering WhatsApp's focus on privacy and comes as a genuine relief. No one wants to be spammed with paid messages.
