No, the nerds have not failed us.

The founders of WhatsApp has failed us by selling for FU money. I was happy paying them a fee in the beginning.

Then authorities have failed us by aproving the merger.

Maybe they didn't fail us... Wikipedia: On February 21, 2018, Moxie Marlinspike and WhatsApp co-founder Brian Acton announced the formation of the Signal Foundation

They failed us to sell WhatsApp to FB while the networks effects are (at least in Europe) in full effect. I simply can't abandon WhatsApp due to this now.
