TikTok, UC Browser, Shareit among 59 Chinese Apps Banned by India

59 Chinese Apps Banned by India: The Indian Government has blocked 59 apps with Chinese links that included the hugely popular TikTok, Shareit, WeChat, BeautyPlus and UC Browser. Sources said inputs from intelligence agencies suggested that the apps have been violating the terms of usage, compromising users privacy, and being used as spyware or malware.

The Centre has decided to disallow the usage of these apps both in mobile and non-mobile internet-enabled devices.

Within minutes of the announcement, the Indian government’s TikTok account MyGov, which had 1.1 million followers, was disabled.

In a statement this evening, the government said the apps were blocked “in view of information available they are engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order.”

The ministry of information and technology has received “many representations raising concerns from citizens regarding security of data and risk to privacy relating to operation of certain apps,” according to the press release.
