An appeal was made in the High Court regarding WhatsApp that the government should take action on the new policy of WhatsApp. In the petition, the new policy was termed as a violation of the privacy of the users. But the High Court refused to issue any notice in this matter.
Delhi High Court said in its order that WhatsApp is a private app. If anyone is facing problems due to WhatsApp’s policy or it affects the privacy of users, then he should leave it. The court has said in its order that there are many such apps with which users share their data. Even Google Maps captures users’ data. Recently, ever since WhatsApp has come out with its new policy update, it is facing strong opposition to it.
The High Court has said that if someone feels that his privacy is at risk by using WhatsApp, then he should leave this app. He may switch to some other app. In this, users are not being put under any kind of pressure. People angry with WhatsApp’s policy update are now turning to Telegram and Signal. Telegram and Signal have received several lakh downloads in the last few days.
