WhatsApp sues Indian government over IT rules

Reuters reports WhatsApp filed a lawsuit to the Delhi High Court against India's government, claiming new Indian regulations would force the messaging application to violate users' privacy. WhatsApp claims the rules would require messaging apps to trace users' chats, which it believes to be "the equivalent of asking us to keep a fingerprint of every single message sent" and asks apps to "break end-to-end encryption and fundamentally undermines people's right to privacy."
