Consumer watchdog has issued a notice to Apple following complaints

- Dhirendar Kumar

The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) issued a notice to Apple Inc. over alleged performance issues with certain iPhone models following a software update, Union consumer affairs minister Pralhad Joshi said on Thursday. CCPA, which reports to the department of consumer affairs, has also issued notices to ride aggregators Ola and Uber following complaints of differential pricing for consumers based on their phone models. The complaints were lodged on the National Consumer Helpline.

"The department, after examining consumer grievances, has issued a notice to Apple through the CCPA, seeking a response on the matter," Joshi said in a social media post.

This latest regulatory scrutiny adds to the increasing attention Apple faces in India, a crucial market for smartphone manufacturers.

A case for loafing about

Taylor Swift apparently spends 60% of her time talking about bread (\"it's a loaf story,\" to quote her)—as I learnt from a reel I came across while trying to avoid getting down to the real work of the day (or should I say loafing about)—and it made me wonder when we became so obsessed about what came out of a packet and was eaten when we were sick.
