GDPR should be like a legal treaty that all democratic countries sign up to. Alternatively, countries should just copy it and legislate it.

    Facebook is sinking fast.
    The Suckerburg is just after your data (As I am sure they all are.) but his only business is stealing your data and offers very little in return.
    The new POTUS will be going after him soon.
    The EU are already on the case and now India is unhappy with his data harvesting.
    Oh dear , never mind and how sad :)
    All I can see is a new Indian designed app that will replace whatsapp very soon.

                          Oh, whatever "whatever that means" means. I am glad other comments about the article made it through, because my previous comment with no swearing whatsoever didn't.

                          Again. You know EXACTLY what it means.

                            Unb1453d, 20 Jan 2021Why, the people there rely heavily on WhatsApp features?Because it's user friendly and simple. People here prefer more simple apps than other apps. Thanks.

                                For all I care, whatsapp can burn to the ground, even though I use it every day with my friends and family. There are plenty of options, with Signal being the strongest one.

                                  Khan, 20 Jan 2021This seems like an editorial article rather than a news post. 'whatever that means'?!Yes, you are right. I was just about to say that and it sounds really unprofessional bringing down the standards of GSMArena. Yordan has lost it. The quality of writing has become subpar and even appalling sometimes with some of the reviewers who troll and call it a review.
