If you're using WhatsApp only because you need to pay for SMS or all your friends who have to pay for SMS use it, is privacy such a big deal to you?
The only reason I ever had it installed was because I became friends with people from other countries that had to pay for SMS when we didn't, they would have otherwise used SMS because it's a no brainer to just use the tech that doesn't require data and that's available by default.
