Jan 14, 2021 9:02 AM

Already under fire for its latest privacy policy designed for India, messaging platform Whatsapp's policy for its European consumers is likely to anger its user base in India even more.

"How long we will be taken for granted by such blatant double standards," asked Paytm chief Vijay Shekhar Sharma on Twitter. Accompanying his tweet was a full-page newspaper advertisement by WhatsApp issuing clarification on its privacy policy and a screenshot from The Irish Times with a headline that read "WhatsApp says European users do not have to share data with Facebook".

How long we will be taken for granted by such blatant double standards ?Self claimed ad claiming respect of our privacy v/s actual policy.

For India
