THE SAMARTH CHAKRAWARTI BLOG

  Hi readers, In the previous blog, we discussed the impact of various OTT platforms in the present times. It is known to us that these platforms are not regulated by the government of India and there have been many protests against the content presented on them. There have been many incidents where many Bollywood celebrities have also demanded the regulation of government on these platforms but there is a section of society whose beliefs are contradictory to this.

If you want a detailed information on this, you can read my previous blog for a better understanding. U

It's a responsibility  In recent years we all might have witnessed that freedom of expression has become a subject of debate. There are divided opinions of people around us.

Hello everyone,  Usually, I write blogs on socio-political issues but this blog is a little out of the box. Recently WhatsApp introduced a new privacy policy for all its users and this created a lot of stir in the market and among common users like us. As a result, many people have decided to use an alternative messenger application. So without any further delay, let's get started. Whenever any user has installed the previous versions of WhatsApp, the privacy policy used to include this statement:- "Respect for your privacy is coded into our DNA. Since we started WhatsApp, we have aspired to build our services with a set of strong privacy principles in mind." This is a mark of security that your data is secure and kept safe, but the new privacy policy does not include this statement, this is the first reason which is the cause of confusion across the globe.  Removal of this statement does not mean that data will now be shared with someone, in fact, the end-to-end encrypti
