so from Feb, when the new terms & cons come in, WhatsApp will no longer be private and encrypted?

if thats the case what else is recommended? Are the any other encrypted messenger Apps worth looking in to?

They can probs all be hacked at any point you only have to read about encro

Any you use needs to be open source code so can be reviewed by anyone etc

Privately owned software can be taken to court as per what happened with Facebook / google etc

This doesn't apply to Europe. Europe is still encrypted.
