WhatsApp vs Indian Government


Do you know what’s going on with WhatsApp and the Indian Government? Please, read below to understand this issue according to thehackernews.com,

“WhatsApp on Wednesday fired a legal salvo against the Indian government to block new regulations that would require messaging apps to trace the “first originator” of messages shared on the platform, thus effectively breaking encryption protections.

“Requiring messaging apps to ‘trace’ chats is the equivalent of asking us to keep a fingerprint of every single message sent on WhatsApp, which would break end-to-end encryption and fundamentally undermines people’s right to privacy,” a WhatsApp spokesperson told The Hacker News via email. “We have consistently joined civil society and experts around the world in opposing requirements that would violate the privacy of our users.”.”
