Facebook amid criticism proposes merging WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebok Messenger toolkits promising better encryption.
New York Times reports that Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) is looking to integrate the chat tools that WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook Messenger use.
The proposition from the company would entail using the same tools and protocols across the messaging aspects of their platforms. The benefits to this from Facebook’s side are obvious:

The consolidation likely would not be appreciated by the users though, the main benefits that users could see would are two hypothetical conveniences; the first would be using one login for all three platforms, and the second would be interoperability across the platforms.
