Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp has reported that it banned a record-breaking 74 lakh (7.4 million) suspicious accounts in India during the month of August, aligning with the new IT Rules 2021.
-
Between August 1 and 31, WhatsApp took action against 7,420,748 accounts, with approximately 3,506,905 of these accounts proactively banned without any user reports. WhatsApp, the most popular messaging platform in India with over 500 million users, received a record 14,767 complaint reports during August, and 71 of these were actioned.
In this context, "actioned" means that WhatsApp took some form of remedial action based on the reported complaints, either by banning an account or restoring a previously banned one.
WhatsApp's monthly compliance report, aimed at enhancing user safety and addressing concerns related to misuse and abuse on the platform, highlights the details of user complaints received and the corresponding actions taken.
