Off topic: Why does WhatsApp don't give the option to block all calls and texts by default? That way, I can only talk with folks I want. The signal app has that option. Random businesses can send you texts to promote their shity services (typically, your number is grabbed from data brokers or leaks). Of course, you can block and report such spam, but there is no DnD option right now.

Edit: I forgot to mention almost all spam is from verified whatapps business accounts. So I believe they/FB are selling data directly under their updated TOS.
