As if it’s not rare enough to see a Chinese social service expand overseas, WeChat is aiming to do it by being identical for Chinese and overseas users. WeChat is emphasizing – as Tencent itself has been doing in recent years – that’s it’s an open platform. Justin stresses, “We must be connected and open to Facebook, Twitter ad Instagram. We must have the same strategy as them – we’re open.”WeChat does this with plug-ins, sort of like web browsers have add-ons. So WeChat’s Facebook integration is an option for you to actually use, or leave untouched, or uninstall the plug-in altogether
