In what could be great news for WhatsApp users around the globe, Facebook seems to be dropping the plans of showing ads inside WhatsApp. Last year, Facebook confirmed that it would be pushing advertisements between WhatsApp Statues similar to Instagram Stories. Facebook’s decision to display ads in WhatsApp made the instant messaging platform’s founders leave the platform. Brian Acton and Jan Koum decided to leave the company after Facebook’s decision to monetise WhatsApp. A new report says that the Mark Zuckerberg-led company may not sell ads on WhatsApp as the team which was formed to work on this project has been disbanded in recent months.

Ads Not Coming to WhatsApp Anytime Soon
A report from The Wall Street Journal says Facebook has disbanded the team which was formed to work on implementing ads inside WhatsApp. “The team’s work was then deleted from WhatsApp’s code,” the report added, according to IANS. However, Facebook is yet to confirm this news officially. If the report is believed to be true, then it will be great news for all the WhatsApp users.
The biggest change WhatsApp expected to receive in 2020 is the advertisements. Facebook said that it would start showing ads between WhatsApp Statuses in 2020. This feature will work pretty much similar to Instagram Stories which also displays ads in between stories. Even Facebook displays ads in between the stories of users. So WhatsApp was all set to become a third Facebook entity to be monetised.
