It’s completely avoidable
No, it's not.
Welp see that’s the thing… it is
Well, sure ok it's "avoidable" in the sense that I'm not forced to engage with facebook or any other company or platform.
However, the imposition on my daily functioning and ability to interact with my peers would be severely disaffected.
If there's a group of a dozen people that I know in person who are interacting on whats app, then if I want to interact with them I need to use whats app.
