Russian Government Fines Telegram For Refusing To Give Up User's Data



Popular messaging app Telegram was fined on Monday by a Russian court for failing to provide the country's security services with encryption keys to reads user's messaging data.

According to reports from TASS news agency, the court imposed an 800,000-ruble fine (about $14,000) on Telegram for failure to "provide law enforcement agencies with information" about its users and their messages.

 Telegram is a free messaging platform which let users to exchange messages, photos, videos, files of different format, make calls between themselves. Every activity carried out on Telegram is encrypted and hidden from the Internet Service Providers and government agencies. The mode in which Telegram operates has attracted over 100 million users since its launch in 2013.

 Sometime ago in September, Telegram self-exiled Russian founder Pavel Durov said that the FSB had demanded backdoor access to the Telegram messaging platform, but Telegram did not  provide the access keys.

 Durov posted online the letter FSB had sent to Telegram in July demanding for "information necessary to decode user's sent, received, delivered and processed electronic messages."


In June 2017, Russia's state communications watchdog threatened to ban Telegram for failing to provide documents, though Telegram later registered but refused to agree on the data storage demands section. The document stated that all companies on the register must provide the FSB with information regarding users interactions.

 Telegram has 10 days to appeal the ruling which was carried out on Monday. However if the appeal fails, Telegram would be given a grace period to handover the encryption keys of which if they refuse, they will be blocked in Russia.

 When asked about a potential block of service in Russia, Kremlin spokesman Dmitriv Peskov said, "As far as i know...there is no discussion of a block at this time."

Qualcomm Wants To Ban Iphone Sales In China





 In an effort to keep charging Apple over the use of its patents in China, Qualcomm has filed lawsuits against Apple in a move that could halt the production and sales of iPhones in China.

  According to the law suite filed in an intellectual property court in Beijing, the mobile chip manufacturer claimed that Apple violated its patents and the company is seeking injunctive relief over the misuse of its IP.

 Qualcomm which is the world biggest provider of mobile chips, gets a portion of revenue from licensing its technologies to hundreds of device makers. According to Qualcomm, the fee is charged based on the phone's value rather than the component.

 Now since Qualcomm owns patents related to 3G and 4G phones, phone makers that builds 3G and 4G capable phones will have to pay them a licensing fee even if they don't use Qualcomm chips. And thats including Apple who only wants to pay for the chips alone, and not the entire phone.

 Apple on its part has argued that Qualcomm is "effectively taxing Apple's innovation" and that Apple "shouldn't have to pay them for technology breakthroughs they have nothing to do with."

Facebook Is Testing A Temporary Profile Status Feature



Facebook has confirmed that it is currently testing a new temporary profile status feature that allows its users to time it when to self destruct.

 This new status feature which allows Facebook users to post text-only updates of up to 101 characters looks similar to the earlier days of Facebook when users could post just status updates instead of videos, links and other things you see today.

 Confirming the new feature, a Facebook spokeperson told BuzzFeed that Facebook users have the option to choose if they want their status whether or not to appear in News Feed or only on their profile.

 "We 're testing an update that lets people set a temporary status on their profile to let friends know what they 're doing or feeling in the moment. People have the option to set an expiration date for the status and choose whether or not it appears in News Feed or any on their profile."
  

Whatsapp's Live Location Feature Lets Friends Track You In Real Time



WhatsApp is set to roll out  a new feature on its messaging app called "Share Live Location" which enable users to share their location in real time to their WhatsApp contact.

 Previously, WhatsApp made it possible for users to share their location only on a static map but this new feature allows the user to share their location in real time which allows real time monitoring. Those who enables the feature can set it for a fixed period of time --maybe 10 mins, 8 hours or 14 hours -- or you can set it to what ever time that you want.

WhatsApp explains that this new feature is designed to be used to let others know that you are OK, and to allow them see that you have made it to your destination.

Here's what WhatsApp said:

"we 're rolling out a new feature that allows you to share your location in real-time with family or friends. Whether you 're meeting up with friends, letting loved ones know you 're safe, or sharing your mute, Live Location is a simple and secure way to let people know where you are. This end-to-end encrypted feature lets you control who you share with and for how long. You can choose to stop sharing at any time or let the Live Location timer simply expire.

 "Here's how it works. Open a chat with the person or a group you want to share with. Under "Location " in the attach button, there's a new option to "Share Live Location." Choose for how long you want to share and tap send. Each person in the chat will be able to see your real-time location on a map. And if more than one person shares their Live Location in the group, all locations will be visible on the same group."

This Share Live Location which is designed to let others know your location is a good update by WhatsApp, although there are concerns that the feature could be enabled without someone's knowledge so as to track their movements.

WhatsApp says the feature will take a few to complete before being rolled out to Android and iOS users.
