Some WhatsApp users who have not accepted privacy policy yet lose the calling feature
India Today
Some WhatsApp users have started losing basic features like audio and video calls. These are the after-effects that the Facebook-owned company had said would gradually show for users after persistent reminders to accept the new privacy policy.
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology last week directed WhatsApp to roll back its new privacy policy, failing which it would take "necessary steps in consonance with law." The Communications Ministry had previously stated that WhatsApp's new terms of service violate IT law, to which WhatsApp had replied saying that the new privacy policy conforms with them. Now, days after WhatsApp's May 15 deadline to accept the new terms of service, some WhatsApp users who have not complied with its new terms of service are experiencing the after-effects that the Facebook-owned company had said would gradually show for users after persistent reminders to accept the new privacy policy. Twitter user @rohitghalsasi on Monday noted that WhatsApp is not allowing users to do audio/video calls if they had not accepted their new privacy policies.More Related News
