always felt the confused look of people when I tell them I don’t have Whatsapp wasn’t enough.

the worst part is that most people cannot fathom that you don't have Whatsapp and you want to continue not having. The confused look is because their way of thinking is "ok you don't have, so what, open an account, it's taking 10 seconds".

When contractors try to get me to communicate with them on what's appropriate, I am happy to tell them that it's forbidden on company devices.

Typically that conversation started on email, which they don't want to continue using for reasons they usually can't explain well.
