Friday, 6 December 2024 The Indian government has raised concerns with Meta regarding the increasing use of WhatsApp for online fraud. The IT Ministry has urged Meta to implement stronger measures to combat these scams, which have cost victims thousands of crores of rupees. Meta claims to be using AI and other technologies to address the issue and is cooperating with law enforcement.
Canada has officially scrapped its controversial 3% Digital Services Tax after former U.S. President Donald Trump halted all trade talks and threatened new tariffs. The tax, set to target tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Meta, faced intense U.S. backlash. Finance Minister Champagne said rescinding the tax is essential to reviving stalled negotiations. Ottawa had previously vowed not to yield, but with over 80% of Canadian exports reliant on the U.S., the rollback clears the way for renewed talks ahead of a July 21, 2025 deadline.
