Facebook was making money from ads when they sold WhatsApp to FB. They had to know that was the plan.

I don't fault them for selling, I fault everyone else for assuming it would always be ad free after the sale.

Well, if it would been a free app, OK. But one did pay for this feature, isn't it. So I want my dollar back.
