Because the ethics of WA and Signal are completely different, and Meta is finally moving in the direction of putting adverts into WA which was predicted years ago when it was bought by Meta.
The whole site appears to be about advocating “ethical” choices and canceling ones he does not agree with.
Is there a problem with that? It's difficult to tell from your post whether you think that's a good idea, other than the quotes which intimate you think the ethics are off?
Free market and money vote and yadda yadda yadda requires consumers to be aware of and mobilize on boycotts. If we want competition, anti-consumer practices to disappear, price transparency, privacy, and on and on, then we need to be willing to mobilize on a boycott on the grounds of ethics or morality.
We all have this theory of the invisible hand and market dynamics but as soon as people actually, you know, practice that then we get a sour taste in our mouth. The truth is cancel culture, or whatever you want to call it, is fundamental to capitalist economies in a classical sense.

Please not that I advocate people to use Signal.
