As far as I read correctly, you can opt out of this: https://www.whatsapp.com/faq/general/26000016

There is no such option in the iPhone app (2.16.9 / 15 Aug 2016).

Once you say "Agree" you only have 30 days to opt-out.

I can't see the option either.
This will probably be pushed with the next update, when you have to re-agree with the terms of service.

I do not remember receiving any agreement to ToS on a new update.
