No making it harder to hack is not good enough. It will still get hacked.
Hardware needs to be impossible to hack.

You're asking the impossible. Let's not even try that, as it would fail before we start.

Yup. All you need to do is to solve the Halting Problem to prove that it's firmware is bugfree. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

TaaS often takes advantage of private and public cloud platforms in order to deliver automated application and software testing services to organizations when they need it. TaaS can be used for load and performance testing, functional testing, or security testing, or it can include all aspects of testing, including test lab management, test driver provisioning, and orchestration of test runs depending on a solution an organization chooses

Yeah, down to the room of your house. How convenient for them.
Without even bringing up NSA, just imagine how Google would use this, "Oh, you're looking at your phone in the kitchen at 3am. Here are some coupons for Kraft Dinner and hangover remedies." (I started writing that in another room, but decided on switching to the kitchen.)

Also. $16Billion for a *chat* app? A *CHAT* app? At that rate, Microsoft could double their market cap just by bringing back all the chat apps they've killed.

Holy cr*p! That's a lot of money. I do use WhatsApp, but only because my wife uses it and she is the only one I ever chat with on WhatsApp.
Besides the regular chat stuff (which works fine, but why wouldn't it these days), you can send voice messages back and forth and the audio quality is quite good. I really cannot explain why so many people think it's great, except that it is available on all the major phones and Facebook is just too heavy if you only need to exchange a few messages.

It's nice to communicate with friends on the other side of the global via phone without paying exorbitant fees.

Yes, but you don't even have to go that far. We save money by using WhatsApp and Skype instead of sending text messages when my wife is in Baja and I am in San Diego.

The group chat are probably the major feature of WhatsApp, and the only reason I have installed it.
Got a group of friends you regularly hang out with? Group chat, invite all the guys, and discuss where and when to meet.
Even my class uses a Group, it's nice to be able to exchange thoughts on non-school days, too.

Wouldn't make a lot of sense to have a group chat with your wife only, but we have dev teams here who do a part of their communication over whatsapp groups (No confidential business stuff, rather the quick-to-be-answered everyday question, chit-chat talk 'n stuff).
