IRCTC, Twitter A parliamentary panel overseen by Shashi Tharoor was summoned to discuss data security

On Friday, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology, chaired by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, has invited Twitter and the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) to testify. Concerns over “citizens’ data security and privacy” have prompted the summoning of the microblogging platform and the railway ticketing service. The Personal Data Protection (PDP) Bill, 2019, was withdrawn by the centre just days prior to the legislative hearing. A new bill will now take its place.

Twitter’s administration and membership would be questioned by the Tharoor-led parliamentary inquiry, according to sources who have been contacted by PTI. It is also possible to inquire about the social media site’s favouritism of a specific political party.

The IRCTC, which has over 10 crore subscribers, has recruited a consultant to monetize passenger data in the meantime. The panel can question why a consultant was hired. The sources stated that IRCTC could also be questioned over the tender that was floated to employ the expert.

The sources claim that the Tharoor-led panel has been talking with different stakeholders on data security and privacy. These include social media businesses, internet companies, government agencies, and other regulators. The panel’s report will probably be completed before August 30.

The Personal Data Protection (PDP) Bill, 2019, was withdrawn earlier this month by the federal government, which is headed by Information and Technology Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw. This statute will now be repealed in favour of a “comprehensive measure” for “modern digital privacy regulations.”

Surfaces of the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra with Snapdragon 8S Gen 3

Early this week, renders of the Edge 50 Fusion appeared, and Motorola has previously stated that the Edge 50 Pro will ship on April 3. The highest-end smartphone in the Edge 50 series, the Edge 50 Ultra, has now been shown in renders.

The phone is depicted in the renderings in peach fuzz and black with a vegan leather finish, while sisal, a beige color, will have a brushed surface. As opposed to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 in the Pro variant and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 in the Edge 50 Fusion, the phone is reportedly powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC.

A 50MP primary camera, an ultra-wide camera, and a periscope telephoto camera with a 5x optical zoom are all included in the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra’s feature set. Additionally, there is a triple LED flash on the right side and a laser autofocus feature above the periscope lens.

Although the phone’s display, battery, and charging specifications are yet unknown, the Edge 50 Pro is said to include 12GB of RAM and support both 50W and 125W wired and wireless charging.

It is anticipated that this will launch as the Motorola X50 Ultra in China. It is unclear if the India launch may be expected on the same day as the rest of the Edge 50 series phones, even if this is scheduled to go official on April 3.
