I think you meant to say you don’t think this is good enough? And I’d second that.

No, I do think it's good enough.

My idea is that if WhatsApp can't be trusted, once it gets access to any file, it will hold on to it. So revoking access to something it already has won't accomplish all that much, since I've already figured that I can share that file with them.
