Social media has had a tremendous impact on the digital age, shrinking the world into a wee space, with no corner too far from anyone’s reach. And with a whole assortment of social media sites to choose from, even governments sometimes choose to disseminate pronouncements on their official handles, while a lot of business talk is propagated through social media platforms such as WhatsApp.
That was why WhatsApp dominated talk in the first week of January 2021 after a notification was released to the platform’s users. “WhatsApp is updating its terms and privacy policy. The new update makes it mandatory for the users to accept the terms and conditions in order to retain their WhatsApp account information,” read the message.
