New Delhi: WhatsApp is rolling out a new joinable calls feature which will let users hop onto group calls after they’ve started, the Facebook-owned company announced Monday. According to The Verge, this new feature means you’ll be able to join a call with your friends and family when you’re ready, kind of like what you can do with a group Zoom or Google Meet call right now. Given the massive popularity of WhatsApp, this could be a useful feature for many people who communicate over the messaging service. Before the new update, users who would miss a call notification would have to ask the caller to add them again.

As per The Verge, this new joinable calls feature starts rolling out on Monday. Here is how you can use Joinable group calls: If someone adds to a group call, you will get a notification from the app. If you don’t…

Ahead of the Monsoon Session of Parliament, an old issue seems to have surfaced once again - Pegasus spyware.  Even as the Narendra Modi-led government convened an all-party meeting with Opposition leaders on the eve of the Monsoon session of Parliament, news of an alleged report called the "Pegasus Report" on the purported wire-tapping of politicians, ministers and other high-level officials started flying fast and thick. So what is Pegasus? Pegasus is a spyware that was developed by an Israeli "cyber weapons" company named NSO Group.  The first time it hit the news was in 2016 when several iPhone users were believed to be targeted by the software to hack them.

In case you don't know, WhatsApp requires users to have an active internet connection in order to use the app on desktop.
