Facebook Negotiating Acquisition of Popular Whatsapp Messaging Program
Facebook is reportedly looking to expand with an acquisition of the popular cross-platform mobile messaging program, Whastapp.

CNET noted earlier in September of this year that various security specialists have major concerns over the application’s potential “security nightmare.”
