In January this year, WhatsApp introduced the latest privacy policy to its users. The WhatsApp Policy change forced the users to agree to its new Terms and Services to continue using the app. The users were given a deadline of May 15 to accept its controversial privacy policy update, which created a stir amongst the users and faced severe backlash. But recently the new deadline for accepting the privacy policy was scrapped.According to a WhatsApp spokesperson, “No accounts will be deleted on May 15 because of this update and no one in India will lose functionality of WhatsApp either. We will follow up with reminders to people over the next several weeks.”The instant messaging platform on its website now stated that if the users did not accept the new privacy policy terms they would not face deletion but will encounter limited functionality of its platform. “No one will have their accounts deleted or lose functionality of WhatsApp on May 15th because of this update.” WhatsApp’s security and privacy page on the website stated.According to WhatsApp, it has displayed a notification in WhatsApp providing more information about the update, therefore, giving everyone enough time to review hence it will continue to do so to those who haven’t had the chance to do so to review and accept. After a period of several weeks, the reminder people receive will eventually become persistent.When the reminder becomes persistent to the WhatsApp users they will encounter limited functionality on WhatsApp until they accept the updates. However, this will not happen to all users at the same time.
So, what will happen if you do not accept the WhatsApp policy?
According to WhatsApp, when you don’t accept its policy it won’t let you access your chat list, but you can still answer the incoming phone and video calls. Also, you will still be able to tap on the notification to read or respond to a message or call back a missed phone or video call if you have the notifications enabled.After a short while, you won’t be able to receive incoming calls or notifications and WhatsApp will stop sending messages and calls to your phone.It should be noted that WhatsApp will not delete your account if you don’t accept the new update but its existing policy related to inactive users will apply. Also to turn over one’s mind the social media app has also warned the users and asked them to reconsider their decision of deleting their account onAndroid,iPhone, orKaiOS. According to WhatsApp deleting the account is something that can’t reverse as it erases the user’s message history, removes them from all of their WhatsApp groups, and deletes their WhatsApp backups.

Amid Covid resurgence, a lot of people are forced to work from home to keep safe, and TVs, as an indispensable part of everyday in-home life, have become our true partners not only to kill time but also to bond with family and loved ones. So, if you are someone looking to buy a new TV set or planning to replace the older one, you must check and compare a few basic details to finalize which brand is the best choice for you. Today’s smart TV market houses a mix of old and new OEMs, offering consumers a large pool of options, which is certainly a good thing, but at the same time, makes them confused. To clarify all your queries and confusion, we have come up with a quick analogy between two leading smart TV brands, Sony and TCL. Here, we will be comparing Sony Bravia A8G OLED Ultra HD TV with TCL C715 QLED 4KTV, and find out which is better.
In This Article
Display
An OLED TV, Sony Bravia A8G offers an enhanced viewing experience with about 4K resolution with eight million self-illuminating pixels, making entertainment highly superior in terms of display colours, images, and lights. What adds to this is the presence of other features like 4K HDR, 4K X-Reality PRO, Dolby Vision, and Triluminos Display.
TCL QLED 4K TVC715, on the other hand, gives a tough competition to Sony with the inclusion of stunning features such as Quantum Dot Technology, Dolby Vision, 4K HDR, 4K UHD resolution, and an IPQ Engine for providing a truly immersive viewing experience to users. In a nutshell, we can say that both the devices have premium offerings, and stand unbeatable in the market.
Audio
In terms of audio, the A8G comes equipped with advanced technologies like Dolby Audio, Acoustic Surface Audio, and Sound-from-Picture Reality for a wonderful audio-visual performance. However, the C715 features Dolby Atmos as well as DTS Smart Audio Processing technologies for a clear and superior listening experience for users. Although the A8G has more to offer in terms of quantity, the C715 is known for its quality. The features provided by both brands are premium, and consumers won’t regret choosing any of them. But there must be some differentiating factor that sets one of these apart. Let’s read on and find out which is worthier.
Control and connectivity
The Sony model comes with a unique remote that can control both, TV and DTH box simultaneously. The remote even offers a dedicated button for Netflix to quickly open the app and start watching content. But in TCL C715, you get hands-free voice control, which allows you to send direct commands to the device and play your favourite content. You don’t even need a remote for controlling the device. All you need to do is speak and it will play. C715 also offers smart interconnectivity, which enables the user to connect other smart home devices to the TV and control all of them together through a single medium, thereby ensuring a super-smart experience at home. Hence, in terms of convenience, we would go with TCL C715 QLED 4K TV.
Common features
Both the TVs have Google Play support, which means the user can have a large pool of content as well as apps to choose from. The TVs also come with leading OTT platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video as built-in APPs. Users can also operate the TV by using a smartphone and get any smartphone video or audio played on the TV without any hassle.
Price
Finally, we have arrived at the main aspect of the TVs, which usually becomes the deciding factor for many users. Well, no more suspense! The Sony Bravia A8G OLED Ultra HD TV 55-inch variant is priced at INR 1,39,990 whereas the TCL C715 4K QLED TV comes at INR 56,999 only. To be precise, C715 offers almost similar features as A8G, however, at a pretty less price. This makes TCL the ultimate winner! Currently, TCL has a “Stay home with TCL” promotion campaign, which offers buy 55 inch C715 and get TCL soundbar worth INR 8,990 for free.
It is clear that both the brands have premium offerings, but TCL is more affordable, and that makes it a preferable choice for consumers who seek premium features at an affordable price. So, are you still confused? Well, now you have a clear answer to why TCL is a better choice.

To better protect the user’s credentials and the resources, Google is going to automatically enable two-factor authentication on certain accounts. This 2FA is a higher security process that usually involves a password for any biometric factor such as a fingerprint or facial scan. This method of security process is said to protect its user from online security threats.Google says that many people believe that a password should be as long and complicated as possible – but in many cases, this can increase the security risk. Complicated passwords tempt users into using them for more than one account. Therefore the strongest passwords can be compromised and used by an attacker. So to protect the users from online threats, Google has announced to enable two-factor authentication by default on select user accounts. The company via its latest blog post said, “Today we ask people who have enrolled intwo-step verification (2SV) to confirm it’s them with a simple tap via a Google prompt on their phone whenever they sign in. Soon we’ll start automatically enrolling users in 2SV if their accounts are appropriately configured. (You can check the status of your account in ourSecurity Checkup).”According to Google by introducing two-factor authentication aims to provide people with a safer and more secure authentication experience than passwords alone.Right now the 2FA is completely optional and it is expected to made mandatory in the coming future It should be noted that social media apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook and Twitter offer 2FA on their platform.Furthermore, Google is also working on advanced security technologies for devices to make this multi-factor authentication seamless and even more secure than a password. The tech giant has already builtsecurity keys directly into Android devices and launchedthe Google Smart Lock app for iOS so that people can use theirphones as their second form of authentication. Whereas the Password Manager built directly intoChrome, Android and nowiOS, uses the latest security technology to protect your passwords across all the sites and apps. This is said to make it easier for users to create and use complex and unique passwords, without the need to remember or repeat them. The Password Manager is also integrated into a single-click GoogleSecurity Checkup that tells the users if any of the passwords have been compromised or if you are reusing passwords across different sites, and the strength of your passwords. Moreover, Google recently introduced a new Password Import feature allowing people to easily upload up to 1,000 passwords at a time from various third party sites into our Password Manager (for free). This will ensure that all of your passwords are protected by our advanced security and privacy technology. It is stated that features such as Password Import, Password Manager and Security Checkup together with authentication products like Sign-in with Google will reduce the spread of weak credentials.
