| WhatsApp to Limit Account Functionality of Users if Privacy Terms are Not Accepted by May 15 Posted: 21 Feb 2021 07:37 AM PST This post first appeared on TelecomTalk Read more at: https://telecomtalk.info/whatsapp-may-15-deadline-user-account/337040/, WhatsApp to Limit Account Functionality of Users if Privacy Terms are Not Accepted by May 15
WhatsApp has confirmed that it will go ahead with the new privacy policy and has set a new deadline of May 15. WhatsApp users will be required to accept the policy before the deadline; WhatsApp says users can still accept the new policy terms post the deadline, but here comes the major catch- if you don’t accept the new terms by May 15, your account functionality will be limited. Yes, WhatsApp confirmed that users would be able to receive calls and notifications but won’t be able to read to send messages from the app. Basically, WhatsApp is forcing you to accept the new terms or else live with limited functionality or delete the WhatsApp account entirely. WhatsApp New Privacy Policy Coming into Effect on May 15On January 4, WhatsApp started pushing the new privacy policy to users across the globe. The Facebook-owned company then faced a tremendous backlash and the rival apps- Telegram and Signal started becoming popular. Since then, WhatsApp explained the new privacy to the users saying it will never collect user data and it will never be shared with its parent company Facebook. The company pushed several status updates to explain how the new privacy policy works. In a new FAQ post, WhatsApp says it is giving enough time to the users to review changes at their own pace and convenience. The effective date when the new policy will come into effect on May 15. Earlier, WhatsApp just said that user accounts would become inactive if they don’t accept the new policy update. Now, WhatsApp says the user accounts will remain active, however, with limited functionality. For a short time, you’ll be able to receive calls and notifications, but won’t be able to read or send messages from the app, said WhatsApp in a new FAQ. Having said that, the company further said users can still accept the updates after May 15, although the account will be deemed as ‘inactive.’ It seems like WhatsApp will flag your account as inactive if you don’t accept the new privacy policy before the deadline. If you are not willing to accept the new privacy policy, WhatsApp says you can export the chat history and delete the account. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| How Does Fiber Optic Cable Work? Posted: 21 Feb 2021 02:52 AM PST This post first appeared on TelecomTalk Read more at: https://telecomtalk.info/how-does-fiber-optic-cable-work/337013/, How Does Fiber Optic Cable Work?
The age of fiber optic cable is here. In case you were wondering why the fiber optic cable is the fastest or how it works, we have got you covered with all the answers. First of all, a fiber optic cable is made up of two main components, a) the core and b) the cladding. These two components work together for creating an overall internal reflection to pass the light signals at rapid speed. Functioning of Fiber Optic Cable ExplainedWith the help of total internal reflection created by the two components mentioned above, light can travel down the fibers without escaping. At a shallow angle, the light enters the glass reflecting against a mirror which then bounces back again. What happens then is that Cladding takes the light in the center as there is a particular optical density in the glass. The light keeps on moving through the fiber optic cable by bouncing off the cable repeatedly. This continues, and each light particle jumps down the pipe at a rapid speed. Both the cable and the glass framework is critical to the functioning of the fiber as it is through the center of the cable from where the light beam passes while another layer of glass is wrapped around (cladding) for keeping the light signals within the fiber optic cable. Different Kinds of Fiber Optic Cable ConnectionsThere are three different kinds of fiber optic cable connections – FTTH (fiber-to-the-home), FTTB (fiber-to-the-building), and FTTO (fiber-to-the-office). The FTTH is a connection suitable for individual homes or premises. FTTB is the kind of connection where the fiber line is transmitted through copper cables in the building. It is suitable for buildings such as apartments or schools. Lastly, FTTO is the kind of connection that is suitable for business needs. In such a connection, the internet service provider (ISP) passes a dedicated line to your office or home, which will be very reliable and secure for getting internet services. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Asianet Giga Fibernet has expanded its broadband services to various cities like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka and Maharashtra. Across all the states, the Internet Service Provider (ISP) is providing broadband plans with 200 Mbps speeds. Asianet’s Giga Fibernet plans come with unlimited data benefit and a free Cable TV subscription. However, the sad part is the 200 Mbps broadband plan comes in a long-term subscription (four months), whereas the cheaper plans are available for the monthly subscription. The 200 Mbps plan for four months costs Rs 3,999 which means an effective price of Rs 999 per month. Other Giga Fibernet plans come with 125 Mbps and 150 Mbps speeds.
