Govt. Issues SIM Binding Directions To WhatsApp and Telegram
India sees US and EU lawmaking idiocy and wants to get in on the fun. Basically, they demand that popular messaging apps link your online ID with a physical element the government believes they can control. They say so right in their claims: it will deter “fraud”; that is, any activity you wouldn’t want traced back to yourself.
In this specific case, I hope the corpos tell them to shove it.
