Facebook , Instagram, Twitter BANNED in INDIA?? Check Full story Here

First of all the websites ie Facebook, Instagram, Twitter are not yet banned. BUT to be honest YES it's possible they can be banned in near future.

What happened??

Basically when Govt of India issues some rules for OTT and websites for Facebook, Instagram, Twitter the Govt is very much serious about the rules and also give deadline to companies to accept the rules and do necessary changes till 25 May which is completed yesterday. Actually its really important for companies to accept the terms as if they won't accept them they will be banned by Govt. Of India.

What NOW??

Well as of now I can't say anything because no one has given any statement or anything. Last year after India banned most popular apps like TikTok or PUBG and proves that they really don't care about company image if they think that this application or website can be dangerous for people of India then they banned it at any cost.

It's possible that companies are still working on the updates but if they need more time they should asked for more time. I hope companies issues some statement as soon as possible or they will face consequences.

Have a look at the new rules issued by Govt. Of India here.

iOS 14.5 is HERE. What's new

 

The iOS 14.5 is already launched and many people even download and start using it. The update size is almost 2 GB and I get this update soon after its announced. But before posting the blog I want to use the feature of update myself. This update is for all iPhones till iPhone 1st Gen. Its really a big update and let's get started

1. Unlock iPhone with Apple Watch

Its pretty much self explanatory. So now user can securely and effortlessly unlock iPhone with the Apple Watch while attempting to use face ID while wearing a mask. As you know that Covid-19 Pandemic is far from over so its really difficult to unlock iPhone using face ID as most of time it didn't recognize the user but now the user can use the apple watch to unlock his/her iPhone

2. New and improved Siri Voice

As you know that apple has Siri the virtual assistant that help user in any best way possible. In this update new voices are added earlier there are 1-2 voices that Siri uses to speak but now it has multiple new voices. The new Siri voices uses Neural Text to Speech technology for an incredible natural sound.

3. App Tracking Transparency

 Well this feature I really want to have on my phone as the iPhone has already launched it so I'm hoping Google also launch a feature something like this. Well feature basically stop any application that tries to track you. As you know that many apps tries to track you to show you personalized ads based on your data collected. Almost any company that shows ads on its app will track you like Facebook or Instagram. Due to this feature there is a serious clash b/w apple and Facebook. Check full information here.

4. New Emoji

Well there are lots of addition of new emoji includes a beard women, injection, headphone etc. 

5. Report incident in Apple Maps

Well this feature actually is quite late on iPhone as Google maps got this feature a long time ago but all I can say is better late than never. This feature is basically for reporting an incident like accident or collision or road closure etc. This information about incident will be visible to apple map users. 

That's all for today. Thanks for reading. If I did some mistake or if you have any suggestion for my blogs do let me know in comments below.

WhatsApp's New Privacy Policy: Should You Accept It?

 

As you know that Facebook owned WhatsApp has given time till 15 may which over today. So now what if you don't accept this policy? what will possibly happen? what will be the effect?

So simple answer to these question is the whatsapp service will STOP for people/user who don't accept this new policy like you will receive new messages, calls etc. but you can't able to read messages , check who called you etc. These services will resume once you accept the new policy and still after certain number of days you don't accept policy then your whatsapp account will be disabled(delete) permanently as the user is not using it.
So should you accept it. Well the choice is completely yours to make after all its your account.

Why this policy?

Well as you know that Facebook buys whatsapp so company wants to integrate this application to Facebook messenger so that you can easily connect on whatsapp via Facebook  messenger. The source of profit for Facebook is ads like the relevant ads shown on your Facebook, Instagram profile. So basically this policy is also specifically for showing ads based on your chats with businesses. As you know that there is two whatsapp variants one is for normal users and other is for businessman. 

Why this policy is make a big noise on Internet?

Well its because when Facebook announces this new policy first people feel that they loose their privacy if they accept this policy. People from last year are become very concerned about their privacy

Facebook assures users that after the policy is accepted by user no personal data is collected "BUT" the chats done with businesses will be collected(not the chats but information regarding business) apart from this data some basic data is also collected like the time at which you use whatsapp most, the device you use etc. 

Is it "SAFE"?

Facebook is one of the biggest tech company and also ensures the security of its users. Due to the new policy many people think that the policy is not safe as it may collected the data including your personal data. Well this all things are fake as Facebook mention multiple times that the collected data doesn't include any personal data.

Also many company (signal, telegram) took advantages and also gains users just because whatsapp issues new policy and users must accept it to be able to able to use whatsapp.

Facebook also answers petition to Indian govt that many apps like Zomato, Ola, Arogya setu take data of user. Its not personal data Afcose but its your data. Just open google playstore search for ola, Zomato or any app ,open it, go to about the app, scroll down to end and you can see which data is collected and by which permission.

At the end all I can say is its entirely upto you to accept or not accept the new policy. You can switch to different app like telegram or signal but just think for a minute are you sure about these about these companies because whatsapp proves a dominator for so many  year and suddenly just because some people say that whatsapp is not safe and you believe it. I'm will never said that the whatsapp is 100% safe but its the safest private messaging app available. whatsapp only survives in market because of its users and WhatsApp will not want to lose his position. 

The users should pay some amount to use Facebook and Instagram check out full information here blog here.

Facebook and Apple Company clash || Full Story Here!!

 

The clash start from when apple introduce new feature that "STOP" applications like Facebook and Instagram. In latest iOS update 14.5 apple specifically introduces many amazing feature. And out of many of these feature there is feature that stop any application that try to track Apple iPhone user.

As you know that Facebook and Instagram tracks users data to show them ads(advertisement). As you know many companies earn revenue mainly from tracking and shows users ads based on the tracked data.

At many times Facebook agree that they track users using their applications that is Facebook and Instagram. Now problem arises when Apple introduces a feature that stop tracking from any application. Now if Facebook can't able to track iPhone users and you know there are millions of iPhone users around the world and also this feature really slash the earning of Facebook and Instagram as they made maximum profit from showing ads.

Currently the company are discussing the situation and if the discussion didn't go as expected by Facebook so Facebook and Instagram start charging some amount from users in order to use their application.

Actually its a matter of concern for general public also not because they maybe going to pay for using fb and Instagram but also for the security reasons. As you already know that there is a huge data leak from Facebook and millions of public data goes public. Its an old news but if it happens again there are chances that money fraud on this platform is also possible (It's not easy as it sounds but it is possible. FB continuously working on its security). 

Apple company really concerns about security and privacy. I have used an iPhone(its my father's actually and by the way I'm happy Android user). So when I used the phone after iOS update 14.5 the phone literally ask me permission for everything like mic, camera, internal memory, etc. These are really a great features that let you know when an application uses which permission and do you want to give them or not This same thing also on android but with a twist as unlike iOS there is no feature yet that stop any application to track the user(The new android 12 is yet to coming this year).

The solution is not yet been found and its possible there is no solution.

That's all for today see you in next blog. Be Safe!!
