Yeah facebooks WhatsApp was doing local phone scanning of content and then reporting back to the mothership. Its under the guise of protecting kids from abuse, but it can also be nefarious if Facebook is pressured by the government to also include a scan of anti administration talk, or a person search. Just too Orwellian in my opinion
