Hello Friends
How are you all? I hope you all are enjoying the summer days. Today I am going to share an important news with you. Is WhatsApp really going to be banned from India soon?
WhatsApp messaging platform and Meta challenging India's IT Rules 2021 for social media medium. Had filed his petition in Delhi High Court. In which he said that he needed to identify the first originator of the information.
WhatsApp and its parent company have challenged Information Technology Rule 4(2) of the IT (Intermediaries Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) 2021, which requires "significant social media intermediaries" to "enable the identification of the first originator of the information". compels such action as may be required by order of the Court or other competent authority.WhatsApp told the Delhi High Court on Thursday that if they forced WhatsApp to break encryption. So it will soon stop providing its services in India.
WhatsApp has clearly and categorically told the Delhi High Court that if the court orders them to break the "end-to-end encryption", then they will stop their service in India. Because their argument is this. That it will violate the user's privacy. Which they never want to let happen.What does WhatsApp say?
If Whatsapp stops its services in India, it will cause loss to many Indian users. In today's time, a lot of work has been simplified by Whatsapp. Delhi High Court will now hear this case on August 14.
That's it for today's important news. What is your opinion on this?
Thank You
