I disagree. Some of my clients and contractors use specific messaging platform (mostly skype, facebook and wechat) and I do not have the power to make them change.

It is not fair to ask people concerned about privacy to pay a toll in terms of professional outreach.

"and I do not have the power to make them change."

This is pretty irrelevant. they have the power to change.

There are plenty of alternatives, in fact, you listed them!
