印度最高法院要求WhatsApp在2026年3月16日之前允许用户选择退出数据共享, 理由是侵犯了隐私权. India’s Supreme Court orders WhatsApp to enable opt-out data sharing by March 16, 2026, citing privacy violations.

印度最高法院在批评其2021年隐私政策违反用户选择后, 命令WhatsApp在2026年3月16日之前实施基于同意的数据共享系统. India’s Supreme Court has ordered WhatsApp to implement a consent-based data-sharing system by March 16, 2026, following criticism of its 2021 privacy policy as a violation of user choice. 法院将该政策称为“盗用私人信息”政策, 规定用户可以选择不与Meta分享数据, The court called the policy a form of "theft of private information" and mandated that users can opt out of sharing data with Meta without losing access to the app. 印度竞争委员会 (CCI) 曾对Meta处罚213.14亿卢比,并要求限制广告数据共享,但后来被法庭暂停. The Competition Commission of India (CCI) had previously penalized Meta ₹213.14 crore and sought restrictions on data sharing for advertising, a ban later stayed by a tribunal. 虽然WhatsApp保持端到端加密保护消息,并且只有在用户同意的可选功能时才会共享数据, 但这起案件仍在五名法官的法庭审理, While WhatsApp maintains end-to-end encryption protects messages and data sharing occurs only with user consent for optional features, the case remains before a five-judge bench, which may issue a five-year advertising ban. 结果可能影响到印度和全球的技术监管。 The outcome could influence tech regulation in India and globally.
