Changes coming in Instagram and Whatsapp

When asked a question, What is common between Instagram and Whatsapp? Nothing in particular comes in mind. But there is a big common aspect shared between the two, parent company, the social media giant Facebook. Yes, Instagram and Whatsapp are owned by Facebook.

Till date Instagram and Whatsapp were seperate entity doing their own business without Facebook interference. But that is going to change soon. Facebook is planning to re-brand Instagram and Whatsapp and has already notified employees of those company. So be prepared to see changes from Instagram and Whatsapp to Instagram from Facebook and Whatsapp from Facebook. For this Facebook spokesperson said "We want to be clearer about the products and services that are part of Facebook."

Facebook lately has been in many controversy regarding their security and user data breaches making people say Instagram, Whatsapp manage those data more securely. Doing this rebranding will be a slap to all those who criticize Facebook’s way of doing work making them aware WhatsApp and Instagram are also from the same company they criticize.
