In the Internet world, companies and institutions providing online facilities to you sitting at home are not sensitive about the security of your data. This is the reason why your personal information is being sold fearlessly. Phone calls from unwanted numbers on your mobile are the result of this. The surprising thing is that from the government to the Telephone Regulatory of India (TRAI), have remained silent in such matters. In the absence of strict laws, your privacy is being compromised every day.
The facilities available on online platforms are collecting your sensitive information. Surprisingly, these companies are not able to save all the information through which you share your mobile, email, Aadhaar details, PAN card, and other sensitive information. Due to the low-level legal provisions of the country, your data easily reach cyber thugs. This information of yours is being sold in the open market, putting your privacy at risk. This has been revealed after the interrogation of the gang of cyber thieves caught by the Telangana Police.
