Tens of millions of Russians have been forced to install a new app called Max on their phones

Mega messaging app with payment options

coerced to install by fomo

has government backdoor

Sounds like whatsApp

Slightly unrelated, FUCK PayPal, bc I tried to change my phone number a few months back and they said they can’t use VoIP numbers bc of spam. I logged on recently to close my account and what do I see?? You can update you’re phone number OR use a WhatsApp account number??? Fuck that bullshit! Why do they get special treatment? I almost thought about making a special account, but I hate Meta more than PP, so no dice. I’ll just close my account.

Isnt watsapp number just your mobile number?
