《WhatsApp and its USD0.99》
by Roy Kwong Translated by Selina Kinyee Chau
The WhatsApp software developer has informed its users to the app to be payable, triggering a fight between iPhone users and android users because iPhone users only pay USD0.99 once to enjoy life-long service but android users need to pay the same price every year.
Android users complain, “Why iPhone users only need to pay once but we need to pay every year?” iPhone users retort, “You didn’t say anything when we were being charged at the beginning. And now you are complaining.” So the two parties are stuck at whether the charge is unfair to Android users.
After the Two Ticks and Last seen on (Please refer to the previous article of the same writer), the WhatsApp started a fight again because of this USD0.99 issue. From between lovers to friends, now it has even extended to the whole user group of the two giant software developers. It should be named the Most Evil App of the Century.
The inconsistency of charging is of course WhatsApp’s fault. However, for those who can afford a smart phone that cost thousands dollars will be able to afford USD0.99 which is only the price of a can of coke, won’t they?
Some student users may complain, “I don’t have a credit card, I’m not able to pay at the App Store, WhatsApp are not considerate of us.” It is reasonable for users under 18 to complain if they don’t have a credit card. But if the charge is a disaster of WhatsApp, isn’t it just time for people to show their kindness? Friends who have a credit card can rescue others at this time, “I have a credit card. Let me pay it for you.”
Friends without a credit card will appreciate what you have done for them, although it is WhatsApp’s fault of the forbiddance of sending messages before the expiry date, reactivating the function for your friends by buying them a can of coke is meaningful, isn’t it? The USD0.99 of WhatsApp has created a chance to show your care to your friends, how nice as a social networking app!
Recall those days when we were still texting, it was actually not financial friendly at all. For the sake of keeping in touch with our friends, we were compelled to use the same service provider as theirs even its service was the worst in the world and we had to survived three times every day from losing connection just because to keep the text messages free of charge.
Still, the Two Ticks and Last seen on functions have created a lot of problem. But the invention of WhatsApp allows us to send messages for free, save us from paying for every text messages. It deserves to be granted a credit. And the simplified process by just clicking a few buttons to send pictures, videos and audios when we could only do so via email in the past. What’s more, WhatsApp had actually stated in the Terms and Conditions that charge may be applied after the first year.
So there have been so many complaints about WhatsApp being unfairness and has been given the name “a broken app” when it announced to charge? No one ever said something like that before the charging. After the charge applied, negative comments has swept over the Internet. Some suggested to use another communication app, Line, which is free of charge, and WhatsApp has become the public enemy. Despite the inconsistent charge, what’s wrong for WhatsApp to charge for using the app?
Have we become too comfortable enjoying free lunch without notice?
I still remember how hard I tried to save to buy a CD home and listened to it again and again when I was a kid. I had never been tired of it because it wasn’t easy. When there was a movie I liked, I saved hard to go to the cinema for it. If I didn’t have enough money, I bought the VCD when it was released. But VCDs were only available for movies not for TV shows. I had to start sitting in front of the TV before the show I liked started so that I wouldn’t miss any parts. And recorders became my good friend too. I really cherished the only-180-minute memory of every tape.
After I grew up, thanks to the advanced technology becomes able to store everything, the TV, computer, CD player, VCD player, game station and recorders, into ONE smart phone, only without the air conditioner. Want to listen to a song? Go to Youtube; want a movie? PPS, internet TV! A TV show? There are also apps you can watch live TV or play back. Want some games? From Angry Bird to Candy Crush, there are thousands of choices waiting for you.
However, The advance of technology has devalue our attitude towards making efforts. Because everything has become easy to get nowadays.
Have you noticed the songs nowadays are not as good as those in the past? That could be the problem of quality itself but more likely, it is because we have too many options. Now we just need to click a few buttons, thousands of search results will come out and we can listen to them right after. We are spoiled to be greedy unconditionally. We didn’t realize how long we hadn’t paid for a CD until the news of HMV’s bankruptcy spread out.
In the past we had to sit still and paid 100% attention to the movie to enjoy it, now we can just watch it from a few-inch-wide screen on a train. But the price is we keep being interrupted by the surrounding noise and people. When the character is saying something moving, we would just realize we’ve missed the stop and have to rush to get off. It may be free to watch a movie like this but I prefer paying to buy a ticket to go to the cinema.
We don’t need to worry about missing the best part of a TV show because our friends always share them on Facebook. We don’t need to watch every scene but you know what is going on in every story. But why is there still something missing? It turns out that we only keep the concentrated part of everything while the every well panned detail has been wasted. We don’t spend time building a connection with the characters in the story. However, if we don’t even spend time watching the the TV show by ourself, how can we feel the same way as the characters do, like we did in the past?
You don’t feel the pain losing something if you have never made any effort. It is just like we keep those old comics that we spent all our pocket money on even they are old and worn , but we are able to uninstall an app on our phone without a thought. Well, just take a couple seconds to download and we will own it again anytime.
While we are expecting making no effort, we are also destroying creativity. Creators lack of motivation. Creativity is worth nothing nowadays. People will search for replacement when one creativity starts to charge. This is not just about the USD0.99 of WhatsApp, it’s about our value on Give and Take.
Technology has changed our life, but we should never let it change our values.
We avoid Giving. But giving is vital for us to learn to cherish. Sometimes we get back more by giving than not giving, not just about money but also about love. Think about it, if we get what we want easily without paying any effort, comparing with that you devote yourself to a relationship while the other devotes to the relationship as much as you. Then none of you will give up on the relationship easily.
If you think WhatsApp is good, it deserves the USD0.99. Although I am still annoyed by the evil functions such as the Two Ticks and Last Seen on. WeChat is free but you have to pay your liberty of speech for it. One user once tried to send the name of Southern Weekly in Chinese, the system reminded him that “The message has involved sensitive words, please try again after making modification.” What’s wrong with the name of Southern Weekly? The even more ridiculous thing is, while I am writing this article, I get the news that WeChat now has tightened up the regulation that users have to use their real name, phone number when posting on the public forum and are even required to upload the photo of them with their ID card, like you have committed some serious crime.
To avoid paying USD0.99, you need to escape to somewhere that and be monitored. One day if you really encounter some sensitive issue, you will realize not paying actually pays more than paying. I believe most of readers are willing to pay for this USD0.99. We hope WhatsApp will open up more channels for payments.
Don’t let the wheels of Time make us forget the value of giving.

Lyrics:
I'm never gonna change your mind
我永遠不會去改變你的想法
And I won't ever treat you right
甚至不會待你有絲毫的客氣
Never forget me, heaven accept me
你可別忘記我 連天堂都會接受我
I'll just go, oh-oh, oh
現如今我要離開了
I'm never gonna change your mind
因為我永遠不會去改變你的想法
And I won't ever treat you right
甚至不會待你有絲毫的客氣

你可別忘記我,連天堂都會接受我
I'll just go, oh-oh, oh
現如今我真的要走了
(Goodbye)
(再見)
I thought I loved you
我曾以為深愛著你
But realized I don't want to
後來逐漸意識到這並非我本意
Sometimes we think ahead of life
有時候我們會提前暢想未來
I'm tellin' you it don't feel right
但現在我告訴你“感覺不太妙”
And even if it was good, I didn't feel the way I should
而就算感覺良好 我也會對
To give you all that you deserved
“給予你應得的一切”提出質疑
But you took it bad and now I'm hurt
你說你受夠了 這讓我很受傷
I said it's fine, you know I lied to keep it cool
我撒謊安慰自己冷靜 被你識破
But we'll keep bein' fools, so I
但我們都寧願天真下去 因此我
Hope you're okay, won't tell
希望你一切安好 不會
Your face, 'cause you don't care
將情緒寫在臉上 因為你毫不在意
And I know you don't think that's fair, oh
我知道你覺得這不公平
I'm never gonna change your mind
我永遠不會去改變你的想法
And I won't ever treat you right
甚至不會待你有絲毫的客氣
Never forget me, heaven accept me
你可別忘記我,連天堂都會接受我
I'll just go, oh-oh, oh
現如今我要離開了
I'm never gonna change your mind
因為我永遠不會去改變你的想法
And I won't ever treat you right
甚至不會待你有絲毫的客氣
Never forget me, heaven accept me
你可別忘記我,連天堂都會接受我
I'll just go, oh-oh, oh
現如今我真的要走了
The first time that we met, I thought you were the one
初遇時 以為你會是我唯一的癡情
We were dancin' at 2 AM until we saw the sun
我們從淩晨兩點共舞直到地平線緩緩升起暖陽
You walked into my heart but
你步入了我的心房但
Hearts don't always end up in the right place
心動卻總是不在對的一瞬間停留
I said goodbye to the thing that I thought I loved
是時候與我所認為的愛情說再見了
I can't go back to the kiss where it all begun
再不能夠回到初吻那一刻 那一切的開端
I see the hurt in your face and
你的臉龐有傷痛的痕跡
I wish that I could wipe it all away
而我希望我能就此抹去
And I tried so hard to want this love
我曾那麼努力地嘗試保留這份感情
We're hangin' on, but now I'm givin' up so
從頭到尾都在堅持 但現在我要放棄了
Trust me when I say that I've done
相信我 我已經想盡一切辦法了
All that I can do, and maybe we're both just fools and I know
也許我們都是愛情中的傻瓜 而我知道
I'm never gonna change your mind
我永遠不會去改變你的想法
And we won't ever get this right
而我們也不可能長久地彼此陪伴
Never forget me, heaven accept me
你可別忘記我 連天堂都會接受我
Just let go, oh-oh, oh
就讓一切都隨風飄散吧
I'm never gonna change your mind
畢竟我永遠不會去改變你的想法
And I won't ever treat you right
甚至不會待你有絲毫的客氣
Never forget me, heaven accept me
你可別忘記我,連天堂都會接受我
I'll just go, oh-oh, oh
我現在就要離開了
(Goodbye)
(再見)

Lyrics:
It’s hard for girls like us
像我們一樣的女孩 在這世上舉步維艱
We don’t know who we trust
不知道該相信誰
Not even the ones we love
哪怕是深愛之人
Cause they don’t know
因為他們對我們的痛苦一無所知
Stuck here
深陷困境
Stuck here in these waters
只有淚水相伴
So sick to my stomach
胃裡排山倒海
Is anybody there?
又有誰會知曉
Red lights
手術室門口的紅燈
Red lights in the darkness
閃爍在黑暗之中
Everyone’s so heartless
人人都事不關己之態
Does anybody care?
又有誰是真心牽掛?
It’s so hard to explain
這種感覺難以言表
With your heart in a cage
因為絕望之心已被幽禁
Only whisper but you wanna shout
渴望高聲嘶喊 卻只能喃喃低語
Cause the second you wake
自你睜眼醒來
Too much pressure to take
無盡壓力旋即而至
Every part of you wants to cry out
身體的每一寸都在咆嘯
It’s hard for girls likе us
像我們一樣的女孩 在這世上舉步維艱
We don’t know who we trust
不知道該相信誰
Not evеn the ones we love
哪怕是深愛之人
Cause they don’t know
因為他們對我們的痛苦一無所知
Try to numb this pain
試圖用這種痛苦麻痹自己
Cause we don’t wanna get hurt again
因為已無力再承受如此重創
Left alone out in the rain
孑然一身 站在傾盆大雨下
They don’t know
沒有人感同我的身受
Mirror, mirror on the wall
牆面上的鏡子
I don’t see beautiful
映出一個毫無美貌可言的我
Staring back at me
回頭看看我
Watching, watching my heart bleed out
看看我滴血的心
Trying not to freak out
粉飾著平靜如水
It’s hard for girls like us
像我們一樣的女孩 在這世上舉步維艱
We don’t know who we trust
不知道該相信誰
Not even the ones we love
哪怕是深愛之人
Cause they don’t know
因為他們對我們的痛苦一無所知
Try to numb this pain
試圖用這種痛苦麻痹自己
Cause we don’t wanna get hurt again
因為已無力再承受如此重創
Left alone out in the rain
孑然一身 站在傾盆大雨下
They don’t know
沒有人感同我們的身受
It’s hard for us
像我們一樣的女孩
For girls like us
在這世上步履維艱
Girls like us
像我們一樣的女孩
They don’t know
永遠無法被真正感同身受
It’s hard for us
像我們一樣的女孩
For girls like us
在這世上步履維艱
Girls like us
像我們一樣的女孩
They don’t know
永遠無法被真正感同身受
So ooh
And the worst part is
最令人絕望的卻是
When they smile like this
他們戴著自以為友善的微笑假面
And it hits me hard
實則無情將我擊倒
Hits me hard
使我無力抵抗
Try to play it cool
試圖對這一切漠然
But inside I’m bruised
但我已潰不成軍
And it breaks my heart
每次都只是傷得更深
Breaks my heart
讓破碎之心愈發絕望
It’s hard for all of us
我們在這世上都無比艱難
We don’t know who we trust
不知道該相信誰
Not even the ones we love
哪怕是深愛之人
They don’t know
因為他們對我們的痛苦一無所知
Try to numb this pain
試圖在痛苦中麻痹自我
Cause we don’t wanna get hurt again
因為已無力再承受如此重創
Left alone out in the rain
孑然一身 站在傾盆大雨下
They don’t know
沒有人感同我們的身受
It’s hard for us
像我們一樣的女孩
For girls like us (Girls like us)
在這世上舉步維艱
Girls like us
像我們一樣的女孩
They don’t know
永遠無法被真正感同身受
It’s hard for us (Oh no)
在這世上舉步維艱
Girls like us
像我們一樣的女孩
They don’t know
永遠無法被真正感同身受

Lyrics:
People say I try too hard
People say I come off really awkward
You know I don’t mean no harm
I’m just trying to be myself but
Sometimes I get confused
‘Cause I can’t read social cues
Threw my inhibitions out the door
I don’t have an excuse
I’m just living in my youth
Don’t know why people don’t like me more
I have no friends but that’s okay
I don’t need them anyway
I do my best all on my own
And I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends but I’ll be fine
I don’t need them to pass the time
And when I put my resting bitch face on I look stone cold
I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends
I have no friends but that’s okay
I don’t need them anyway
I do my best all on my own
And I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends
You’ll never know what’s on my mind
You’ll never know the secrets that I’m keeping
I’ll scare you off with my crazy eyes
‘Cause all I need is me myself and
I don’t got no shame
‘Cause my life is just a game
And I don’t care who’s been keeping score
Everybody thinks I’m strange
It’s just something in my brain
Don’t know who they’re being normal for
I have no friends but that’s okay
I don’t need them anyway
I do my best all on my own
And I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends but I’ll be fine
I don’t need them to pass the time
And when I put my resting bitch face on I look stone cold
I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends
I have no friends but that’s okay
I don’t need them anyway
I do my best all on my own
And I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends
I don’t need anybody’s hand to hold at night
As long as I’m with me I know I’ll be alright
‘Cause I can’t love no one else
Spent my love on just myself
Took this people-pleaser heart
And I tore it all apart
Now I’m finally set free
I’m so proud to be me
That’s why I don’t care I just wanna say
I have no
La la la la la
I have no friends but that’s okay
I don’t need them anyway
I do my best all on my own
And I’d just rather be alone
Rather be alone
I have no friends
All I need is me myself no friends
I have no friends
