New Delhi, Feb 15 (TIWN) People have grave apprehensions on loss of privacy, the Supreme Court said on Monday, making it clear that it is the court's duty to protect this right as it heard an application against WhatsApp's new privacy policy.
The observation came as senior advocate Shyam Divan, representing petitioner Karmanya Singh Sareen, sought direction to restrain WhatsApp from implementing its new privacy policy in India. "They have come up with new differentiating privacy policy for the Europeans and different set of rules applicable to Indians," Divan argued. He added that till the time new data protection law comes into force in India, WhatsApp should not bring its new privacy policy.
