They may have nothing to hide but they have IP to protect to stay in business. What a ridiculous thing to say.

whatsapp doesn't have the best app. It doesn't look the best, it's not the fastest. It was just very great back in the days. But not anymore. Whatsapp could easily publish the code. It's not the client, it's the server. They could even publish the server code. It's not the code itself. It's the people using it.

They don't lock out third party apps and slow down reverse engineering by giving their code away.
