The Supreme Court on Tuesday came down heavily on WhatsApp and its parent organisation Meta for unauthorised sharing of user data for commercial gains, saying the company could not “play with the right to privacy of citizens”.
“We will not allow you to share a single word or data…. You have made a mockery of the country’s Constitution,” a bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant said.
