WhatsApp Struggling to Control Fake News in India,Fake Images and Videos Spreads in WhatsApp

2019-02-19T18:13:00.002+05:30

fake images and videos spreads in whatsapp

In the WhatsApp spreads of fake news, the Centre has directed the messaging platform WhatsApp to come out for the solutions that can bring in facilitate enforcement of law against dissemination of wrong information. The government Union Minister of State for Home Hansraj Ahir said that the government has taken note of reports about spread of fake news in WhatsApp platform. WhatsApp is very important to India’s everyday life, WhatsApp groups are used to spread news about what happening in local communities and messages are forwarded to multiple groups and friends at once. WhatsApp messages have been blamed for Fake news, Users are rapidly spread of Fake images and videos. As a result, India has found itself in the unenviable position when it comes to internet shutdowns. Analysts say the shutdowns have cost India billions of dollars and damaged the country’s online reputation being blamed on rumours about fake news spreads on WhatsApp.

whatsapp struggling to control fake news in India

WhatsApp which uses end-to-end encryption not even the company can read the content by user privacy. Some civil society members have also cautioned against asking WhatsApp to break its encryption, which they say could potentially lead to censorship. The company has also come under fire from the Indian government, with the electronics and IT ministry asking it in July to figure out a mechanism to trace problematic forwarded messages. Local district magistrate Amrit Tripathi told That rumour about the death of an injured girl could have disrupted the peaceful environment. Tripathi said audio and video messages were getting shared on social media sites. As part of the police investigation, three people including group administrator were arrested for sharing messages on WhatsApp and also WhatsApp played a major role in political campaigning and the spread of fake news. One of the videos tells the story of a young man who has moved away from home and uses WhatsApp to stay in touch with his family. When his uncle forwards a fake news message on the family group, he calls him to tell him that he should not share such rumours and convinces him to leave that such group's from where he sourced the offending message.

whatsapp limits forwarding messages to 5 chats in india

In India, the company has limited the number of chats to which one can forward a message to five "instead of the global standard of 20", and introduced a tag that indicates when a message is a forward. The company is also actively banning accounts that exhibit suspicious like spam. It has reportedly banned around 300,000 (paywall) India-based accounts for such reasons. Ahead of India’s next general election, WhatsApp is taking to primetime airwaves to curb misinformation on its platform. WhatsApp has at least 200 million users in India. Fake news has become a life and death issue in India lately. Many incidents of violence, have been allegedly linked to online rumours. Fake news and rumor circulation are growing day by day in India via WhatsApp. Honestly, people are sometime foolish and even more stupidity to expect any maturity from the people.
If you're not sure a is message is true or fake, ask the sender or search online for conformation, check the site is trusted or not before share and where the story came from. if there is fake news, tell the person that sent it to you and ask them to verify information before they share it. Don't share fake messages because of someone tell you to do so, if anybody tell you to share fake news report them.

Mobile Number Portability Become Faster, Will Take Just Two Days

2019-01-13T20:42:00.000+05:30

porting process is easier it will take just two days

Trai has made it easier, and faster, to switch phone number from one telecom operator to another. So, if you are planning to switch from Airtel to Jio, or vice-versa, without giving up your existing number, it will take no more than two days to get on to another network.

Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) issued seventh amendment to the Mobile Number Portability (MNP) regulations, citing a major shift in the mechanism for generating Unique Porting Code (UPC).

Right now, after you send the request to port your number through SMS, a Unique Porting Code (UPC) is generated. You need to apply to the operator you need to switch to within a stipulated period of time.

Then, new operator takes permission from the old operator and communicates this to MNP Service Provider (MNPSP, that serves as link between your old and new operator). Then old operator withdraws services, passes the message to MNPSP. The new operator can now claim the number and activate services on the new number.

This process usually takes about 7 working days, the time before you get the new activated SIM.

According to the release, 'in the revised process for validation of conditions and generation & delivery of the unique porting code, it has been provisioned to establish a query response mechanism to enable the Mobile Number Portability Service Provider (MNPSP) to query the database of the Donor Operator on real time basis to obtain the response for the queries. Based on the result of queries made by MNPSP and fulfilment of other prescribed conditions, the allocation and delivery of UPC shall be ensured by MNPSP.'

TRAI new rules for MNP

This means the MNSP has been given the job to obtain the number from the old operator, through a way in which it can access its database of telecos real time to know what all numbers need to be ported and be ready to assign the number to the new operator.

TRAI claims with the new process in place, it would take no more than 2 days for the porting process to take place in the same network circle (intra- Licensed Service Area).

Though, the validity of the UPC has also been reduced to 4 days, from earlier 15 days for all circles, except for Jammu & Kashmir, Assam and North East.

TRAI says it will implemented appropriate Quality of Service (QoS) parameters, devised by the Authority to monitor the role of MNPSPs and Access Providers in the new scenario. It has also broadened the 'Financial Disincentives' in case the regulations are flouted in any manner by the MNSPs.

The process for withdrawal of porting requests has been made simpler and quicker through SMS.

For corporate connections and porting request outside the native circle (inter- Licensed Service Area), the timeline for porting is 4 days, but it is still faster. Also, limit for numbers to be ported in single authorization letter has been increased from 50 to 100.

Jio Prepares To Launch 5G Services in India Within 6 Months Of Spectrum Allocation

2019-01-10T15:38:00.001+05:30

5G technology are expected to be available in 2019

Less than a week after Telecom Secretary Aruna Sundararajan on Sunday announced that auction of spectrum for 5G services is likely to happen in the latter half of 2019, the buzz is that Reliance Jio is gearing up to be among the first movers.

According to The Economic Times, Reliance Jio is preparing to launch fifth generation telecom services, which can support download speeds 50 to 60 times faster than 4G, within six months of spectrum allocation. In other words, the Mukesh Ambani telco could well launch 5G services in the country by mid-2020.

"Jio has 5G-ready LTE network and we are capable of launching the new technology-based services within five-six months once spectrum is allocated," a company official told the daily, adding that the telco is aggressively deploying optic fibre, which forms the backbone of a 5G network.

5G mobile networks

Citing a Morgan Stanley report released in December, the daily previously pointed out issues where fibre-backhaul is concerned. The latter is critical to deploy 5G in order to have low latency, low interference and high network capacity, which can transfer data back and forth to the core network, but only about 25% of the incumbent operator sites are currently fiberized. So fibre rollouts is a key near term focus for the telecom sector.

The report added that Jio and Bharti Airtel have both indicated deployment of significant MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and Software-defined Networking (SDN), to get their networks 5G ready.

Industry experts told the daily that unlike previous upgrades to newer generation of technologies, 5G would take lesser time to go to market, especially for Jio which already has an all IP-based network.

However, the Jio executive claimed that the biggest challenge would be the readiness of the ecosystem, including availability of devices that support the spectrum bands being contemplated for a 5G roll-out. "If you don't have instruments or routers to serve the 5G technology, this would be a challenge," the source explained, adding that the company is in discussions with local as well as multinational vendors to ensure device availability ahead of the commercial rollout.

5G networks in india

Globally, devices supporting 5G technology are expected to be available in 2019, starting with the high-end models. Dominant chipset makers like US-based Qualcomm, Exynos and MediaTek are currently developing 5G-based modems.

The government, which is determined not to miss the 5G bus - as telecom minister Manoj Sinha put it, referring to the country playing catch up with 2G, 3G and 4G - intends to give experimental licenses for telcos to develop test beds to evolve a full-fledged 5G eco-system.

According to Sundararajan, before the spectrum auction, the Department of Telecommunications wants to provide a one-year timeframe for trials with experimental spectrum. In fact, DoT has reportedly already invited Jio, Airtel, Vodafone Idea and state-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) for field trials.

In any case, 5G rollout is expected to happen much faster than the older services. As long as monetisation avenues and opportunities are properly identified, rollout would not take long because there is no requirement for replacing hardware as it was done to upgrade from 3G to 4G services.
