Facebook adds Snapchat-like feature to WhatsApp

Yeah there's a counter showing the number of people who've viewed your status. Obviously if you regularly open the same girl's new statuses it's sort of similar to "following" them.

I dunno, this still seems to me to be a great game tool. Post status's of yourself doing cool shit, see which girls check you out, game and close. This can be another way of reopening a girl you previously talked too. Also a way to make girls hamsters go into overdrive.
Yeah, the data facebook is collecting is alarming, but strictly from a game perspective I don't see any issues. If a girl can triangulate that you are banging other hot girls, sounds like a win.

Ok I'm very familiar with that but I haven't tested its applicability to concealing the fact that you have opened a contact's status. There's no mention of that in the privacy section.
I'll verify via Google then.
edit - haven't found anything yet on how to hide that you've opened a status. I wonder if there won't be an option to do so, as the rumoured purpose of this latest app update is for FB to bring advertising into WhatsApp.
