In last year's META event, the company's CEO Mark Zuckerberg said, 'India is a country that is at the forefront of using WhatsApp. Citizens and businesses have adopted WhatsApp messaging app for messaging. You are leading the world in this. WhatsApp says that if encryption is removed due to IT regulations, it will undermine users' privacy. It will also violate his right to privacy.

Kariya said, 'There is no such rule anywhere in the world. Not even in Brazil. We have to maintain the whole chain. And we don't even know which messages to decrypt. This means millions of messages have to be stored for years, which is not ideal.
