WhatsApp banned over 1.9 million Indian accounts in May 2022, here’s why - 91mobiles

In its latest report, WhatsApp said that its abuse detection operates at three stages of an account’s lifestyle – at registration, during messaging, and in response to negative feedback. The latter comes in the form of user reports and blocks. WhatsApp has a team of analysts that inspect these three stages to help improve effectiveness over time. 

Of course, banned accounts have the right to make an appeal but WhatsApp rarely overturns them. Out of 303 appeals in the month of May only 23 accounts were restored, according to the latest report.

“Over the years, we have consistently invested in Artificial Intelligence and other state-of-the-art technology, data scientists and experts, and in processes, in order to keep our users safe on our platform. In accordance with the IT Rules 2021, we’ve published our report for the month of May 2022. This user-safety report contains details of the user complaints received and the corresponding action was taken by WhatsApp, as well as WhatsApp’s own preventive actions to combat abuse on our platform,” said a WhatsApp spokesperson.

Instagram tests making all video posts Reels - GSMArena.com news - GSMArena.com

Instagram’s efforts to compete with TikTok are growing with the blogging platform’s latest move. As per a screenshot posted to Twitter by Matt Navarra, Instagram has begun testing making every video posted to Instagram a Reel so it may reach a larger audience across Instagram and Facebook.

In an email to TechCrunch, a Meta spokesperson writes: “We’re testing this feature as part of our efforts to simplify and improve the video experience on Instagram.” Instagram Reels first launched in the US in August 2020 and sees immense engagement with the Reels’ short video format.

Instagram is now making EVERY video a Reel

The screenshot shows that “Video posts are now shared as reels.” Instagram hopes that by nudging all video towards Reels, videos should see more engagement, video effects are available, music can be added, and videos can be remixed into new Reels.

The change is being tested and its permanence is not clear. It is also not clear what will happen to existing videos published to Instagram, and whether you’ll still be allowed to publish videos up to 10 minutes (or up to 60 minutes on verified accounts).

Nearly a year ago, head of Instagram Adam Mosseri said that Instagram was “no longer a photo-sharing app” as the company has shifted its focus towards “creators, video, shopping, and messaging”.

Nothing phone (1) may skip in-box charger and start at €470, suggest leaks - The Indian Express

The Nothing phone (1) is a week away from launch and is currently one of the most awaited devices out there. While a number of details about the phone are now beginning to surface on the web, including the price and the specifications, one aspect that has remained a mystery is the presence of an in-box charger with the phone (1).

Multiple reports from various tipsters who have had a good track record in the past have suggested that the Nothing phone (1) will not bundle a charger with the phone, while others have said otherwise.

A new report now by tipster Abhishek Yadav suggests that the Nothing phone 1 will not come with an in-box charger.

– Charger not included in box ❌#Nothing #NothingPhone1 pic.twitter.com/ePQS2oTYKo

— Abhishek Yadav (@yabhishekhd) June 30, 2022

As you can see in the tweet, the Nothing phone (1) will reportedly only come with a screen protector and a USB cable in the box. We suggest you take this information with a grain of salt though. We should know for sure.

Nothing phone (1): What we know so far

The Nothing phone (1)’s complete specifications were just leaked on Twitter by tipster Abhishek Yadav. The leaks suggest that the phone will come with a 6.55-inch OLED display with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate. The phone will also feature Gorilla Glass protection on the front and back.

The device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+ chipset, which Nothing founder Carl Pei had previously confirmed, and will come with a 50MP dual camera setup on the back which will support 4K recording up to 60fps.

The phone will also come with Android 12-based NothingOS and no bloatware apps. Other features include the Glyph Interface lights, symmetrical bezels and an aluminium frame.

Nothing phone (1): Pricing

Another leak by tipster Mukul Sharma on Twitter has also revealed what appears to be the European pricing of the Nothing phone (1). The leak suggests that the phone will start at €469.99 for the 8GB/128GB variant and €499.99 for the 8GB/256GB variant, while a top-end 12GB/256GB variant will come in at €549.99.

Nothing Phone (1) + Nothing Ear (1) bundle
8+128GB: €469.99 (Rs 38,773.90)
8+256GB: €499.99 (Rs 41,249.56)
12+256GB: €549.99 (Rs 45,378.57)
Do note that the Indian pricing is likely to be lower than this.#Nothing #NothingPhone1 pic.twitter.com/iBKfYmr043

— Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) June 30, 2022

These prices suggest that the Nothing phone (1) will start at about Rs 38,773 by direct conversion. However, this is rarely the case as the pricing for the device is likely to be different for different regions. The tipster also suggested that the Indian pricing is likely lower than the above mentioned European prices.
