Major tech giants Apple and Google ramp up manufacturing efforts in India.

The Indian mobile phone market has achieved a significant milestone, with 99.2% of the devices used within the country now being manufactured locally.

👉2014: 78% import dependent
👉2023: 99.2% of all mobiles sold in India are ‘Made In India’. pic.twitter.com/SxUeDwNjsn

— Ashwini Vaishnaw (@AshwiniVaishnaw) November 25, 2023

The value of India’s mobile manufacturing industry has surged to $44 billion which is all but a demonstration of the country’s technological prowess.

India is not only increasing its production volumes but also advancing up the value chain with various mobile phone components now being produced domestically.

India has now emerged as the second-largest producer of mobile phones globally, a significant leap from just 19 percent of shipments being ‘Made in India’ in 2014.

Government’s Ambitious Targets and Global Participation

Now the country is setting higher goals. India’s ambitious target is to manufacture $300 billion worth of electronics products by the 2025-26 fiscal year.

The government’s production-linked incentive (PLI) schemes are likely to play a pivotal role in attracting global manufacturers and diversifying the country’s manufacturing capabilities.

Apple, a major player in the global smartphone market, has been significantly expanding its manufacturing footprint in India.

The company reportedly aims to make India a very valuable market and increase production to over $40 billion in the next 4-5 years.

India's Mobile Manufacturing Industry Soars with 99.2% of Phones Made Locally — India’s Mobile Manufacturing Industry Soars with 99.2% of Phones Made Locally

“There are some big leaders in the Opposition who still believe that mobile phones are imported. They forget that today 99.2 percent of mobile phones used in India are made in India,” Vaishnaw said to reporters on 27th November at Tata’s iPhone plant in Tamil Nadu’s Hosur.

Google, too, has joined the trend, announcing plans to manufacture its Pixel smartphones in India.

For now, the company will initiate this process with its flagship Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, with the first units expected to roll out in 2024.

India’s Semiconductor Program and Employment Impact

Vaishnaw also highlighted the progress in India’s semiconductor program and the positive impact of mobile phone industry growth on employment.

The construction of plants for chip manufacturing is reportedly progressing well.

In 2022, the ‘Make in India’ initiative saw mobile phone shipments surpass 2 billion units, marked by a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 23 percent over the last nine years.

This growth is attributed to factors like strong domestic demand, increased digital literacy, and supportive government policies.

WhatsApp Expands ‘View Once’ Feature to Desktop and Web Versions

WhatsApp Expands 'View Once' Feature to Desktop and Web Versions

Highlights

WhatsApp introduces ‘View Once’ feature for desktop and web applications.
The feature allows sending photos and videos that disappear after a single view.
Available on WhatsApp Web, Windows, and macOS with the latest app versions.
Enhances privacy, but recipients can still capture content via screenshots or recordings.

WhatsApp has upgraded its desktop and web versions by integrating what it is calling the ‘View Once’ functionality.

This was a feature that was previously exclusive to its mobile application only but now it is coming to a more diverse set of platforms

This update, highlighted by WABetaInfo, allows users to send photos and videos that vanish after a single viewing in the chat.
Kind of like Snapchat or the messages you sent on Instagram’s DMs.

To access it on the desktop or web application, users will just need to select the ‘View Once’ icon, which is very conveniently located above the send button, after capturing a photo or video.

This will basically ensure that the media is sent in a single-view mode, meaning, as mentioned above, the recipient can view it just once before it disappears from the chat.

Although the feature enhances privacy by not saving the media in the chat, it’s important to note that recipients can still capture the content through screenshots or screen recordings.

This is not like Snapchat, where the user either cannot take a screen grab or the sender is notified if there is one.

The presence of ‘View Once’ media is still indicated in the chat, even after it has been viewed.

Initially rolled out on WhatsApp’s mobile application in 2021, the feature was briefly available on desktop clients but was removed for privacy concerns.

Its re-introduction to WhatsApp’s desktop apps signifies the platform’s ongoing commitment to expanding user experience across different devices.

The latest versions of WhatsApp Web, Windows, and macOS applications will gradually receive this feature in the upcoming weeks.

FAQs

What is the ‘View Once’ feature on WhatsApp?

The ‘View Once’ feature on WhatsApp lets users send photos and videos that can be viewed only once by the recipient. After being opened, these media files disappear from the chat and are not saved.

On which platforms is the ‘View Once’ feature now available?

Initially available on WhatsApp’s mobile version, the ‘View Once’ feature has now been extended to desktop and web platforms, including WhatsApp Web, Windows, and macOS.

How can users access the ‘View Once’ feature on WhatsApp’s desktop version?

To use the ‘View Once’ feature on WhatsApp’s desktop version, users need to select the ‘View Once’ icon located above the send button after capturing a photo or video. This ensures the media is sent in a single-view mode.

Are there any privacy concerns with the ‘View Once’ feature?

While the ‘View Once’ feature enhances privacy by ensuring photos and videos disappear after viewing, recipients can still capture the content through screenshots or screen recordings. It’s important to be mindful of this when using the feature.

Major Dating Apps Pause Instagram Ads Amid Concerns Over Inappropriate Content Placement

Highlights

Dating apps pause Instagram ads due to explicit content concerns.
Investigations reveal ads near inappropriate material.
Match Group, Bumble halt Meta ads.
Meta conducts audits for ad placement integrity.

Several leading dating apps have halted their advertising campaigns on Instagram due to concerns about their ads being displayed next to explicit content.

This decision follows investigations that simulated child predator behaviour on the platform, leading to inappropriate ad placements.

Investigations by the Wall Street Journal and The Canadian Centre for Child Protection revealed that ads from prominent brands were shown next to sexually explicit material.

This occurred when replicating online activities typical of child predators, such as searching for images of young gymnasts and cheerleaders, alongside adult sexual content.

Both organizations documented the ads and recommendations presented to these accounts.

During these tests, Instagram’s algorithms frequently recommended explicit content, including suggestive videos of children and explicit adult content, with major U.S. brand advertisements interspersed.

Major Dating Apps Pause Instagram Ads Amid Concerns Over Inappropriate Content Placement

Notably, an advertisement for Bumble was shown amid highly inappropriate videos, including one of a minor lifting her shirt and another showing a man with a purportedly underage girl.

The WSJ reported finding a significant number of Instagram accounts that matched these predatory profiles, with similar content recommendations.

As a result, two prominent dating apps have ceased their advertising on all platforms owned by Meta.

Match Group, which operates Tinder and other dating services, began withdrawing its advertisements in October, citing Meta’s inadequate response to their concerns.

The company has since completely stopped advertising on Meta platforms, refusing to fund promotions that might be associated with predatory behaviour.

Bumble’s spokesperson, Robbie McKay, stated that the company never intended to advertise near such content and has also suspended its ads across Meta’s platforms.

Other companies have expressed concerns regarding the risk of their brands being associated with inappropriate content on Instagram.

In response, Meta is reportedly conducting independent audits to assess and address these ad placement issues.

FAQs

Why have major dating apps suspended advertising on Instagram?

Major dating apps have paused their Instagram advertising campaigns after investigations demonstrated that their ads were being displayed alongside sexually explicit content. This decision was influenced by the platforms’ inability to segregate their advertisements from inappropriate material.

What led to the discovery of this inappropriate ad placement?

Independent investigations by the Wall Street Journal and The Canadian Centre for Child Protection, simulating the online behaviour of child predators, found that ads were being shown next to explicit content, raising serious concerns about ad placement policies on Instagram.

Which companies have stopped advertising on Meta platforms?

Match Group, the parent company of Tinder, and Bumble have both suspended their advertising across all Meta platforms. This decision was made in response to their ads appearing adjacent to inappropriate content, which goes against their advertising standards.

What steps is Meta taking in response to these concerns?

In response to these concerns, Meta has reportedly started conducting independent audits. These audits aim to evaluate and ensure that advertisements on Instagram are not placed next to inappropriate content, thereby protecting brand integrity.
