I have to admit, I have never even looked at WhatsApp. I don’t follow Instagram, have a real Facebook, my Twitter is fake.

If you’re thinking WhatsApp is what’s replaced AOL or Yahoo Messenger, MSN or ICQ?

It’s kind of like comparing a biplane is as much of a plane as a 787.

The reach and functionality of social media apps can outrun any MSM outlet in terms of speed and distribution.

Encrypted texts for all but in-house not so much if they disagree with your politics.
