"have to stick with it"..

dont misrepresent

you admitted yourself you dont have to, as you will leave it if the law passes. Why are you not willing to admit that it is a "WANT" ?

Everyone will be using it when the law passes so it’s no different.

Do you imagine that people will stop chatting if this law passes? If you hate it so much, why not just stop using it now?

As others have stated, just uninstall it now. Even at my work, my manager wanted us to use WhatsApp to communicate with our offshore teams. I let her know that I would be happy to do so with a company provided phone, but I don't install spyware on my devices, and furthermore don't have an app store so would need to be able to build it from source. But I'd be happy to use signal or email.
