And is whatsapp now dramatically better than it was at acquisition time...?

Maybe it's a bit better. Is it 10000x better, though? I used Whatsapp before and after, and I find it hard to believe.

(One thing it's definitely better at, though: anything you say will almost instantaneously turn into an ad on the next website you visit.)

As a product or a company? Pretty sure the combined entity that now includes WhatsApp is drastically more successful from a financial standpoint that the predecessor standalone company that comprised WhatsApp and had 55 employees.
