Amid the second attempt to implement WhatsApp’s new privacy policy update, the platform appears to have softened the change entirely due to the increasing pressure from the Indian regulators. It seeks to pacify concerns around data sharing involving WhatsApp and Facebook.
Earlier, the announcement sparked major backlash where millions of people started to move away from the app by choosing alternative messaging platforms.
As a result, WhatsApp explained – “After a period of several weeks, the [privacy policy update] reminder people receive will eventually become persistent. At that time, you’ll encounter limited functionality on WhatsApp until you accept the updates. This will not happen to all users at the same time.”
