Hi Mwara,

1.I believe  WhatsApp/Facebook has been pretty transparent about the Data they will be collecting as seen, so what exactly are we collating?

2. Personally I called their bluff on the February deletion and shall continue to do the same. I will not be accepting the new terms regardless of my location at the time their policy comes into force.

Warm Regards,

Dear listers,

Thanks to those who managed to contribute to the discussions yesterday. We are still collating our questions to Facebook regarding this subject. Today let's talk about what's at stake with the new terms. To guide our discussions, let's ponder over these questions:

1. We already have applications that mine our instant generated data from our mobile phones(eg bible apps, mobile lending apps, games etc). What's different with Whatsapp getting this data?
 
2. Is there anyone who has accepted these terms already? What's your experience so far?

Lets continue the conversation!

Warmly
Mwara
