Allegations against a company who circumvented Android's security to track users?

I don't have any proof that Meta stores WhatsApp messages but I feel it in my bones that at the very least tried to do so. And if ever that comes to light, precisely nobody will be surprised.

The amount of ambient cynicism on the internet basically makes this a meaningless statement. You could plausibly make the same claim for tons of other conspiracy theories, eg. JFK was assassinated by the CIA/FBI, Bush did 9/11, covid was intentionally engineered by the chinese/US government, etc.
