Prob won’t work for everyone, but what I’ve (always) done is refuse to use WhatsApp, and just email/sms/iMessage/telephone as needed instead. WhatsApp isn't the only way to communicate. Then keep telling people to use signal.

I'm not sure there's a lot that can be done, right?
I'm not sure I'll ever achieve 100% off of WhatsApp, but then again... do I need to?
I think it's best just to minimise WhatsApp usage, and the relationships and conversations I really care about I have moved to Signal very easily... these are the conversations where people want privacy and security.

realistically my friends and family simply won't (that's even before you start talking about manual backups etc).
I wouldn't be so sure. They moved from sms to WhatsApp. For people in the UK this is not a hard thing to get a critical mass behind.

This is a really interesting conversation, but for the average user (like myself), what's the real world solution? WhatsApp has a critical user mass and whilst I like the idea of moving to Signal, realistically my friends and family simply won't (that's even before you start talking about manual backups etc).
