>Is whatsapp usable?
it's pretty well made. the only bad thing is that it relies on your phone. even when using the pc browser it needs your phone.

>Is it a botnet?
well, they get to have your phone number, your contacts list and messaging metadata.
if you don't like that it's a botnet.

>Does /g/ use signal?
no, and there's no reason to use it, since there are better alternatives.
