India's tech industry body has called the government's SIM binding directive for messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal 'unconstitutional', saying it exceeds the authority granted by the Telecommunications Act of 2023. The directive requires app-based communication services to be linked to a user's active SIM card. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/technology/centres-sim-binding-directive-on-app-based-messaging-platforms-unconstitutional-tech-industry-body-bif/articleshow/128851975.cms #India #Tech #Policy
