  • WhatsApp une collecte d'informations qui ne passe pas

Face à la polémique engendrée par l'annonce de ses nouvelles conditions d'utilisation, WhatsApp a décidé d'en repousser l'entrée en vigueur.

Si Facebook se donne un peu de temps pour convaincre ses utilisateurs, en Inde, on demande tout simplement le retrait de ces nouvelles CGU qui, rappelons-le, ne sont pas optionnelles. "À défaut, vous ne pourrez plus profiter de WhatsApp à partir du 8 février".

L'autorité Android garantit que le gouvernement indien a demandé WhatsApp, à travers le ministère de l'électronique et des technologies de l'information (MeitY), de retirer les modifications apportées à sa nouvelle politique de confidentialité.

Ils peuvent en effet refuser les conditions d'utilisation (dont la date d'application a été reportée au 15 mai) sans risquer de voir leur compte désactivé.

L'entreprise mène également une large bataille contre d'autres géants du numérique tels que Google ou le chinois Alibaba pour prendre une part du marché du paiement mobile indien, en rapide progression.

WhatsApp a d'ores et déjà tenté de rassurer ses clients indiens, menant de larges campagnes de publicités dans la presse nationale afin d'assurer que " le respect de votre vie privée fait partie de notre ADN ".

Elle a ainsi lancé en novembre dernier WhatsApp Pay, qui permet d'envoyer et recevoir de l'argent via la messagerie, quelques heures seulement après avoir reçu les autorisations du régulateur.
