Govt gives ultimatum to Meta India to enforce WhatsApp traceability

When Meta policy chief Nick Clegg visited India last month, the government had reportedly given an ultimatum to the social media giant to enforce traceability of WhatsApp messages. He was told that the government would enforce the traceability clause on WhatsApp irrespective of the courts’ interventions. According to a Moneycontrol report, a senior official told Clegg that Meta can make suggestions on the language of the traceability provision.
