Among the first in the line for coronavirus vaccines in Indonesia has been one conspicuous group — social media influencers.Television personalist Raffi Ahmad, who boasts almost 50 million followers on Instagram, was next to President Joko Widodo as the world's fourth most populous country kicked off its vaccination drive last week. “Alhamdulillah a vaccine ... Don’t be afraid of vaccines,” the 33-year-old celebrity wrote under a video of him receiving the shot, next to a heart emoji and another of Indonesia’s red and white flag.Deciding who should be first in line for limited vaccine doses has been a challenge around the world, with many countries prioritizing vulnerable medics and the elderly.Senior health ministry official Siti Nadia Tarmiz, said the decision to include influencers alongside almost 1.5 million healthcare workers in the first round of inoculations was a deliberate government communications strategy.Although Indonesia faces the most severe coronavirus outbreak in Southeast Asia – with more than 869,000 cases and 25,000 deaths – there has been scepticism around the safety and efficacy of any vaccine, and in the world’s biggest Muslim-majority nation, whether it is halal, or allowed under Islam.A health worker poses with a vial containing a vaccine…

Third-party apps that build online inventories of products and engage with customers through WhatsApp and other social media, though popular, don’t offer the same integration level that WhatsApp is trying to build with JioMart.(MINT_PRINT) The integration will allow JioMart catapult its reach across India, allowing Reliance Retail to pose a serious challenge to Flipkart and Amazon’s domination in India’s fast-growing online retail market.

Ambani is trying to wrest a bigger share of India’s retail market, estimated to reach $1.3 trillion by 2025. Reliance is already India’s biggest offline retailer.JioMart was launched in May across 200 cities and towns, a month after Reliance Retail signed a pact with WhatsApp to boost the reach of the online shopping website.

Akash Sondhi, 27, targeted 573 users - including four from Nottinghamshire - aged between 16 and 25 between 2015 and 2020. While some of his victims are yet to be traced, police officers discovered they were located all across the world – including the UK, Australia, Hong Kong, Romania and beyond. Police said Sondhi hacked the accounts to gain access to intimate images. He would then threaten to expose the pictures to friends and family members in their phone contacts if they did not send him more images and videos. His home was raided by officers in March 2020 when several victims made reports to the police. A number of his victims have since been identified and have been supported by officers from the cyber team. Sondhi, of of Hedingham Road, Chafford Hundred in Essex,…

When a few viewers tuned into Nick Kelly's first stream and began interacting with the streamer, he was overjoyed, creating a Twitch feel good story. Too often when it comes to Twitch, and streaming culture in general, there tends to be a focus on negative encounters or feuds between streamers. So when a few viewers stumbled on Nick Kelly's small Just Chatting stream and decided to share his stream with others, it snowballed into a Twitch feel good story. Twitch is a strange place for a number of reasons. The interaction between streamer and viewer is simultaneously intimate and distant, with streamers inviting the Internet into their world.

A prime example of this being when xQc's fans lobbed death threats at Ash when the two streamers met in the Rust OfflineTV server. Despite the existence of negativity, good can happen on the platform, such is the case when a new streamer received an outpouring of support. Nick Kelly's stream was found by a group of friends who weren't sure if the streamer was for real. But after…
