The Madras High Court Today (Oct 25) directed social media platform Telegram to immediately block and delete any posts or “chatbots” flagged by insurance company Star Health Insurance for leaking its customer data that was hacked recently. The Court was hearing a petition filed by Star Health against Telegram and five others after it discovered that a hacker was using Telegram to leak sensitive company and customer data.
The Supreme Court granted anticipatory bail to a Kerala restaurant owner accused of selling adulterated shawarma, which allegedly caused a customer’s death. The decision solidified relief from arrest granted in December 2023, reflecting a balance between legal proceedings and individual rights in cases involving grave allegations. This signals the gravity of food safety violations and the legal repercussions.
