💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court of India has dismissed a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) seeking a ban on WhatsApp if it fails to comply with the country's IT rules. The petitioner, a software engineer from Kerala, argued that WhatsApp refused to adhere to the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, and was violating citizens' rights and posing a threat to national security.
