WhatsApp username feature: Government grants Meta more time to reply

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has granted Meta an extra three days to provide its response regarding WhatsApp's upcoming username feature, moving the deadline to July 9. This new functionality is designed to let users connect with others through unique usernames instead of revealing their phone numbers. The government's decision to allow more time follows growing worries about user privacy and safety, specifically regarding the possibility of identity impersonation.
