The Government of India has decided to limit the access of foreign companies to the market of cellular networks. Now the state-owned companies BSNL and MTNL should implement projects for the modernization and construction of 4G and 5G networks only with Indian companies.

For these purposes, BSNL and MTNL received about $20 billion. The Indian government wants all of the industry’s core technologies to be developed domestically without much dependence on foreign players. India also wants all intellectual property to remain inside.

However, it is not clear how this will affect the development of 5G networks in India, because it will take Indian companies a lot of time to develop the appropriate equipment.

A vulnerability has been discovered in the operating systems of iPhones and iPads that could give hackers full administrative access to devices. It is in the core of the system and in the engine for displaying WebKit web pages. As noted, the problem has been fixed in the latest firmware versions.

The media talked about this, and also said that some “anonymous researchers” helped discover the company’s vulnerability, but Apple did not disclose details.

As follows from the report, attackers could run applications with administrator privileges and act on behalf of the owner of the device. The issue affected iPhone 6s and later, iPad Pro (all models), iPad Air 2 and later, iPad 5th generation and later, iPad mini 4 and later, and iPod touch (7th generation). This affected the iOS 15.6.1 and iPadOS 15.6.1 operating systems.

The company’s technical support has already stated that the problem has been fixed, and independent experts have stated that they recommend updating the OS to the latest current version.

The full iOS 16 update will be released in September, and watchOS 9 for smartwatches is also expected. But the new version of iPadOS will appear later, like macOS Ventura.

WhatsApp developers are working on a new feature that will prevent users from taking screenshots and capturing video from the screen when opening files for a one-time view. The innovation has already been implemented in the beta version of the messenger for Android.

So, in the future mobile version of WhatsApp, users will be notified before sending a file with a single view that the recipient will be able to open the photo or video only once and will not be able to resend it to anyone, save it, copy it or take a screenshot. There are no such notifications or warnings in the current version of WhatsApp. True, at the same time, nothing prevents the recipient from recording a video or photographing content on another smartphone.

Recall that recently the release of a full-fledged WhatsApp client for desktop PCs and laptops running Windows took place.
