The application Whatsapp, the autonomous app that's it Facebook bought last month for 16 billion dollars, will not collect .

"If the us with it Facebook it meant we had to change our values, we would not do it ", wrote Jan Koum, CEO of WhatsApp in blog of the company, adding that posts claiming that WhastApp will start collecting data are "irresponsible."

WhatsApp says it doesn't even collect basic information like your email address or birthday, unlike many social services like Facebook. WhatsApp does not collect the message content or the sent between users.

Σύμφωνα με τους όρους παροχής υπηρεσιών της εταιρείας, “Το περιεχόμενο οποιονδήποτε μηνυμάτων δεν αποθηκεύονται από την εφαρμογή WhatsApp – τα μηνύματα πάνε απευθείας στις of the sender and the recipient and which can be deleted according to the user's choice.”

Of course, what is not mentioned anywhere is the fact that now WhatsApp is Facebook. This means that even if the messages are not stored, Facebook has something worthwhile paying 16 for billions of dollars. The telephone numbers of the users' personal telephones.

The statements and the content of the statements of the "company" WhatsApp, were expected, as many people are in a dilemma after its acquisition by Facebook, which as we all know does not respect the personal data of its members.
