Of course, that also means it's more or less impossible for Viber to offer any kind of "personal assistant" or actively provide help when you are having a conversation, in the way Messenger and Google Allo do. We don't have this data available for anyone - not for us or any advertising partners," said Agaoua. "We don't read this content, we don't use this content. That makes it impossible for the company to read any of those messages, and any encrypted messages that travel through the service are deleted from servers as soon as they're delivered, the company says. On top of that, for messaging, Viber turns on end-to-end encryption by default. "It's advertising, but it's not advertising by pop-ups when you don't want it."įacebook's working on photorealistic VR avatars and they're kinda creepy
"The answer to a search could be sponsored in some cases," Agaoua explains. The important part is Viber says it doesn't use personal data to serve any of this content, and it will only serve these kinds of ads when you're proactively searching for something. For example, if you search for "restaurants" you may see some local spots that have paid to be there. Instead, it will only serve ads when a user goes to the Discover part of the app and looks for something. While Viber makes some money via user fees (calling out to a phone number costs a nominal fee, as do extras like sticker packs), the way it treats advertising doesn't depend on user data. If WhatsApp remains a secure private app, or if it becomes another tool of the Facebook galaxy to grab more data and make more money." WhatsApp was supposed to be different.we'll see what WhatsApp will become. It necessitates a lot of ads, a lot of reading of everything exchanged on the platform to be able to monetize as much as possible. "Messenger is a very different model from us. "The Facebook galaxy is our major competitor," Agaoua said.
